Abstract excerpt

Biogenesis and maintenance of the photosynthetic thylakoid membrane requires transport of lipids from their site of synthesis in the chloroplast envelopes to their destination in the thylakoid. While vesicle trafficking is likely involved, we hypothesized a complementary mechanism involving direct membrane interactions. Using domain homology and proteomic profiling of chloroplast membrane fractions, we identified...
