  2. 1. Characterization of auxiliary membrane proteins in the chloroplast of Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Lotta von Sydow; Christiane Funk; Wolfgang Schröder; Thomas Pfannschmidt; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis; chaperone; chloroplast; Cytochrome b559; FtsH; membrane proteins; photosynthesis; Photosystem II; protease; PsbY.; Arabidopsis; chaperone; Cytochrome b559; fotosyntes; fotosystem II; FtsH; kloroplast; membranprotein; proteas; PsbY.; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : In nature, sessile plants have to adapt to their environment and to the never ending changes they are exposed to. They do so mainly by proteomic and metabolomic changes. In all cells, there are complex networks of auxiliary proteins that are responsible for quality control of all the cell's proteins. READ MORE

  4. 2. Cryo-EM Studies of Macromolecular Complexes from Photosynthetic Organisms

    Author : Annemarie Perez Boerema; Alexey Amunts; Mei Li; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cryo-EM; membrane proteins; photosynthesis; translation; chloroplast; ribosome; photosystem I; protein structure; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Plants, algae, and cyanobacteria convert light energy into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis, fueling the planet and making life as we know it possible. Photosystem I (PSI) is one of the main photosynthetic complexes, responsible for this process. READ MORE

  5. 3. Nucleotide-Dependent Processes in the Thylakoid Lumen of Plant Chloroplasts

    Author : Björn Lundin; Cornelia Spetea Wiklund; Zach Adam; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; plant; chloroplast; thylakoid; nucleotide; PSII; PsbO; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Plants, algae and photosynthetic bacteria are able to harvest the sunlight and use its energy to transform water and carbon dioxide to carbohydrate molecules and oxygen, both important to sustain life on Earth. This process is called photosynthesis and is the route by which almost all energy enters the biosphere. READ MORE

  6. 4. Molecular Mechanisms Optimizing Photosynthesis during High Light Stress in Plants

    Author : Lan Yin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis; light stress; photosynthesis; chloroplast;

    Abstract : Oxygenic photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae and cyanobacteria use solar energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into molecular oxygen and carbohydrates. Photosynthesis sustains life on Earth since it provides not only energy for individual growth, but also represents the starting point of the food chain for most living organisms. READ MORE

  7. 5. The chloroplast lumen proteome of Arabidopsis thaliana

    Author : Maria Schubert; Wolfgang Schröder; Eva-Maria Aro; Södertörns högskola; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photosynthesis; chloroplast; thylakoid lumen; Arabidopsis thaliana; proteome;

    Abstract : In plants, the chloroplast organelles host the photosynthetic machinery, which catalyzes the conversion of light energy to chemical energy used for synthesis of carbohydrates. Inside the chloroplast, the lumen compartment forms an integral part of the thylakoid network that performs the light reactions of photosynthesis. READ MORE
