Light intensity and temperature are primary environmental factors affecting the growth and
development of plants. Changes in their intensity, range and duration can lead to …

The chloroplast organelle in mesophyll cells of higher plants represents a sunlight‐driven
metabolic factory that eventually fuels life on our planet. Knowledge of the ultrastructure and …

Since years, research on SnRK1, the major cellular energy sensor in plants, has tried to
define its role in energy signalling. However, these attempts were notoriously hampered by …

Photosynthetic light harvesting in plants is regulated by phosphorylation-driven state
transitions: functional redistributions of the major trimeric light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) …

Plants require solar energy to grow through oxygenic photosynthesis; however, when light
intensity exceeds the optimal range for photosynthesis, it causes abiotic stress and …

Thylakoids of land plants have a bipartite structure, consisting of cylindrical grana stacks,
made of membranous discs piled one on top of the other, and stroma lamellae which are …

Photosynthetic organisms and isolated photosystems are of interest for technical
applications. In nature, photosynthetic electron transport has to work efficiently in contrasting …

Posttranslational modifications (PTM s) of proteins greatly expand proteome diversity,
increase functionality, and allow for rapid responses, all at relatively low costs for the cell …

Tetrapyrroles are macrocyclic molecules with various structural variants and multiple
functions in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes. Present knowledge about the metabolism of …

In this review we examine the structure and function of the extrinsic proteins of Photosystem
II. These proteins include PsbO, present in all oxygenic organisms, the PsbP and PsbQ …
