Title

Nature and mechanisms of reorganizations in the multilamellar photosynthetic membrane systems of plants and algae studied by SANS

Abstract

Photosynthetic organisms have developed efficient processes to protect themselves against damages by extreme environmental conditions. Little is known about the structural changes of the thylakoid membrane system of different organisms under different natural conditions in vivo. Structural flexibility of photosynthetic apparatus plays important roles in protective regulatory mechanism in plants. One of these processes, the NPQ (non-photochemical chlorophyll fluorescence quenching) is accompanied by changes in the membrane ultrastructure. Our aim is to obtain information about the nature and mechanism(s) of the changes in the thylakoid membrane ultrastructure during NPQ and upon different other environmental conditons in different wild type and mutant cyanobacterial and algal cells, as well as in higher plant leaves.
