Heterocyst Thylakoid Bioenergetics [PDF]

open access: yesLife, 2019
Heterocysts are specialized cells that differentiate in the filaments of heterocystous cyanobacteria. Their role is to maintain a microoxic environment for the nitrogenase enzyme during diazotrophic growth.

The Role of Phosphorylation Dynamics of CURVATURE THYLAKOID 1B in Plant Thylakoid Membranes [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2019
Thylakoid membranes in land plant chloroplasts are organized into appressed and nonappressed membranes, which contribute to the control of energy distribution between the two photosystems (PSI and PSII) from the associated light-harvesting complexes (LHCs).

Native architecture of the Chlamydomonas chloroplast revealed by in situ cryo-electron tomography

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Chloroplast function is orchestrated by the organelle's intricate architecture. By combining cryo-focused ion beam milling of vitreous Chlamydomonas cells with cryo-electron tomography, we acquired three-dimensional structures of the chloroplast in its ...

Light induced changes in protein expression and uniform regulation of transcription in the thylakoid lumen of Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
In plants oxygenic photosynthesis is performed by large protein complexes found in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. The soluble thylakoid lumen space is a narrow and compressed region within the thylakoid membrane which contains 80-200 proteins ...

Thylakoid Protein Phosphorylation in Chloroplasts

open access: yesPlant and Cell Physiology, 2021
Abstract Because of their abundance and extensive phosphorylation, numerous thylakoid proteins stand out amongst the phosphoproteins of plants and algae. In particular, subunits of light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) and of photosystem II (PSII) are dynamically phosphorylated and dephosphorylated in response to light conditions and ...

The impact of physiologically relevant temperatures on physical properties of thylakoid membranes: a molecular dynamics study

open access: yesPhotosynthetica, 2023
Thylakoid membranes are energy-converting membranes with a unique lipid composition. Though the membranes are primarily composed of proteins, their photosynthetic function is strongly influenced by the lipid constituents.

Evolutionary Patterns of Thylakoid Architecture in Cyanobacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
While photosynthetic processes have become increasingly understood in cyanobacterial model strains, differences in the spatial distribution of thylakoid membranes among various lineages have been largely unexplored.

Nonlinear Dielectric Spectroscopy as an Indirect Probe of Metabolic Activity in Thylakoid Membrane

open access: yesBiosensors, 2011
Nonlinear dielectric spectroscopy (NDS) is a non-invasive probe of cellular metabolic activity with potential application in the development of whole-cell biosensors.

Arabidopsis EGY1 Is Critical for Chloroplast Development in Leaf Epidermal Guard Cells

open access: yesPlants, 2021
In Arabidopsis thaliana, the Ethylene-dependent Gravitropism-deficient and Yellow-green 1 (EGY1) gene encodes a thylakoid membrane-localized protease involved in chloroplast development in leaf mesophyll cells. Recently, EGY1 was also found to be crucial
