Recent progress in elucidating the structure of higher plants photosynthetic membranes
provides a wealth of information. It allows generation of architectural models that reveal well …

Oxygenic photosynthesis is a fundamental biological process that shaped the earth's
biosphere. The process of energy transformation is hosted in highly specialized thylakoid …

The primary events of oxygenic photosynthesis are carried out within intricate membrane
lamellar systems called thylakoid networks. These networks, which are present in …

The chloroplast thylakoid membrane is the site for the initial steps of photosynthesis that
convert solar energy into chemical energy, ultimately powering almost all life on earth. The …

Chloroplasts are semi-autonomous organelles comprised of two envelope membranes, an
aqueous matrix known as stroma, and internal membranes called thylakoids. All of the light …

Adaptability of oxygenic photosynthetic organisms to fluctuations in light spectral
composition and intensity is conferred by state transitions, short-term regulatory processes …

Cyanobacterial thylakoid membranes represent the active sites for both photosynthetic and
respiratory electron transport. We used high-resolution atomic force microscopy to visualize …

The light reactions of photosynthesis are hosted and regulated by the chloroplast thylakoid
membrane (TM)—the central structural component of the photosynthetic apparatus of plants …

Long-term acclimation of shade versus sun plants modulates the composition, function and
structural organization of the architecture of the thylakoid membrane network. Significantly …

How thylakoid membranes are generated to form a metabolically active membrane network
and how thylakoid membranes orchestrate the insertion and localization of protein …
