Plastidial glycolipids contain diacylglycerol (DAG) moieties, which are either synthesized in
the plastids (prokaryotic lipids) or originate in the extraplastidial compartment (eukaryotic …

Phosphatidylglycerol (PG) is a unique phospholipid class with its indispensable role in
photosynthesis and growth in land plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. PG is the only major …

One of the major characteristics of chloroplast membranes is their enrichment in
