Localization and Topology of Thylakoid Membrane Proteins in Land Plants
Thylakoids are a formation of flattened membrane vesicles and protein complexes found in cyanobacteria, algae and plants. In the chloroplasts of land plants the thylakoid membrane systems form a network of densely packed stacks called grana lamellae ...

The photosynthetic cytochrome c550 from the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum [PDF]
The photosynthetic cytochrome c550 from the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum has been purified and characterized. Cytochrome c550 is mostly obtained from the soluble cell extract in relatively large amounts. In addition, the protein appeared to be

The Douglas-Fir Genome Sequence Reveals Specialization of the Photosynthetic Apparatus in Pinaceae. [PDF]
A reference genome sequence for Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii (Mirb.) Franco (Coastal Douglas-fir) is reported, thus providing a reference sequence for a third genus of the family Pinaceae.

Mechanisms of light harvesting by photosystem II in plants
Light harvesting by photosystem II (PSII) in plants is highly efficient and acclimates to rapid changes in the intensity of sunlight. However, the mechanisms of PSII light harvesting have remained experimentally inaccessible.

State transitions at the crossroad of thylakoid signalling pathways [PDF]
In order to maintain optimal photosynthetic activity under a changing light environment, plants and algae need to balance the absorbed light excitation energy between photosystem I and photosystem II through processes called state transitions.

One-step isolation and biochemical characterization of a highlyactive plant PSII monomeric core [PDF]
We describe a one-step detergent solubilization protocol for isolating a highly active form of Photosystem II (PSII) from Pisum sativum L. Detailed characterization of the preparation showed that the complex was a monomer having no light harvesting ...
