Thylakoid Protein Phosphorylation in Chloroplasts
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 ...

Thylakoid membranes isolated from leaves of two plant species, the chilling tolerant (CT) pea and chilling sensitive (CS) runner bean, were assessed for the composition of lipids, carotenoids as well as for the arrangement of photosynthetic complexes ...

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 ...

Pigment-protein complexes are organized into stable microdomains in cyanobacterial thylakoids.
Thylakoids are the place of the light-photosynthetic reactions. To gain maximal efficiency, these reactions are conditional to proper pigment-pigment and protein-protein interactions.

Biogenesis of thylakoid membranes
Thylakoids mediate photosynthetic electron transfer and represent one of the most elaborate energy-transducing membrane systems. Despite our detailed knowledge of its structure and function, much remains to be learned about how the machinery is put together.

Lateral Segregation of Photosystem I in Cyanobacterial Thylakoids[CC-BY]
Atomic force microscopy, optical microscopy, and structural modeling reveal extensive macromolecular arrays of cyanobacterial PSI complexes that allow some intertrimer energy migration. Photosystem I (PSI) is the dominant photosystem in cyanobacteria and

An homozygous mutant line of Arabidopsis thaliana with a knocked out At4g20990 gene encoding thylakoid carbonic anhydrase αCA4 was created using a CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system. The effects of the mutation were compared with those in two mutant lines

Thylakoid membranes isolated from spinach have previously been shown to inhibit lipase/co-lipase and prolong satiety in vivo. There is a need to develop thylakoid products that not only have the desired characteristics and functionality after processing,
