Heterocyst Thylakoid Bioenergetics [PDF]
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 lack of photosynthetic water oxidation in the heterocyst puts special constraints on the energetics for nitrogen fixation, and the electron ...

A brief history of thylakoid biogenesis [PDF]
The thylakoid membrane network inside chloroplasts harbours the protein complexes that are necessary for the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. Cellular processes for building and altering this membrane network are therefore essential for life on Earth.

IntroductionIron (Fe) is one of themost important cofactors in the photosynthetic apparatus, and its uptake by chloroplasts has also been associated with the operation of the photosynthetic electron transport chain during reduction-based plastidial Fe ...

The Role of Periodic Structures in Light Harvesting
The features of light propagation in plant leaves depend on the long-period ordering in chloroplasts and the spectral characteristics of pigments. This work demonstrates a method of determining the hidden ordered structure. Transmission spectra have been

Photosynthetic and Ultrastructural Properties of Eggplant (Solanum melongena) under Salinity Stress
Salinity is one of the major problems facing crops worldwide. Salinity can severely affect plants in a negative manner. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of NaCl on morpho–physiological, biochemical, structural and ultrastructural properties in ...

There is a surprisingly high morphological similarity between multilamellar concentric thylakoids in cyanobacteria and the myelin sheath that wraps the nerve axons. Thylakoids are multilamellar structures, which express photosystems I and II, cytochromes

Dehydrins (LTI29, LTI30, COR47) from Arabidopsis thaliana expressed in Escherichia coli protect Thylakoid membrane during freezing [PDF]
As the name dehydrins implies, these proteins are typically expressed in response to dehydration which can be caused by drought, osmotic stress or freezing temperatures 1. In general, dehydrins occur in plants as multi-gene families.
