When oxygenic photosynthetic organisms are exposed to excessive light and/or heat, Photosystem II is damaged and electron transport is blocked. In these events, reactive oxygen species, endogenous radicals and lipid peroxidation products generated by ...

Background: Light-harvesting chlorophyll (LHC) II associates with photosystem (PS) I to form a PS I-LHC II supercomplex. Results: Treatment of thylakoid membranes with styrene-maleic acid copolymer allows isolation of PS I-LHC II membranes.

The grana thylakoids of higher plant chloroplasts are crowded with PSII and the associated light-harvesting complexes (LHCIIs). They constitute supercomplexes, and often form semi-crystalline arrays in the grana. The crowded condition of the grana may be

BACKGROUND & AIMS Dietary chloroplast thylakoids have previously been found to reduce food intake and body weight in animal models, and to change metabolic profiles in humans in mixed-food meal studies.

An Imported Thylakoid Protein Accumulates in the Stroma When Insertion into Thylakoids is Inhibited
The light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein (LHCP) is synthesized in the cytosol as a precursor (pLHCP) that is imported into chloroplasts and assembled into thylakoid membranes. Under appropriate conditions, either pLHCP or LHCP will integrate into isolated thylakoids.

Alteration in the Acyl Lipid Composition of Thylakoids Induced by Aging and Its Effect on Thylakoid Structure [PDF]
The alteration in both the lipid composition and chlorophyll proteins obtained by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of detergent solubilized thylakoids was investigated on differentially aged spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts.

Fast Diffusion of the Unassembled PetC1-GFP Protein in the Cyanobacterial Thylakoid Membrane
Biological membranes were originally described as a fluid mosaic with uniform distribution of proteins and lipids. Later, heterogeneous membrane areas were found in many membrane systems including cyanobacterial thylakoids.

Loss of the SPHF homologue Slr1768 leads to a catastrophic failure in the maintenance of thylakoid membranes in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. [PDF]
In cyanobacteria the photosystems are localised to, and maintained in, specialist membranes called the thylakoids. The mechanism driving the biogenesis of the thylakoid membranes is still an open question, with only two potential biogenesis factors ...

The seedlings of Oryza sativa L. cv. Nipponbare grown by hydroponic culture for 3 wks were treated with 75, 100, 150 and 200 mM NaCl for 14, 14, 6 and 3 days, respectively, and examined for chloroplast ultrastructure in the region where chlorophyll ...
