This article will review papers that have recently appeared on plant chlorophyll-protein complexes. Because of space limitations, it cannot be exhaustive or critical. We emphasize data that have appeared since the reviews of Anderson [8], Thornber [126], Thornber et al.[130], and Boardman et al.[31], but do not completely exclude some ealier pertinent results. Other recent reviews [35, 114, 127,213 and symposia (Brookhaven Symposium in Biology, Vol. 28, 1976 and ClBA Symposium, New Series 61, 1978) tan-gentially consider this topic. We will not use the term ‘chlorophyll protein’in this review, since this term has been used ambiguously by researchers and sometimes misinterpreted to mean either the holocomplex or the apoprotein. Instead, we will use an old term, chlorophyllin, to refer to a holocomplex. No universally accepted nomenclature for chlorophyllins has been established. This and the fact that each …
