Intrinsic to internal membranes called thylakoids, chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and other pigments (such as carotenoids) that harvest and convert light energy, an electron transport chain that intersects with light-harvesting pigments at photosynthetic reaction centers, and an ATPase that couples electro...
In plants, the so-called "light" reactions occur within the chloroplast thylakoids, where the aforementioned chlorophyll pigments reside. When light energy reaches the pigment molecules, it energizes the electrons within them, and these electrons are shunted to an electron transport chain in the ...
To solve the question of finding the odd one out among the terms: chloroplast, chlorophyll, centrosome, and granum, we can follow these steps:1. Identify the Terms: - The terms given are chloroplast, chlorophyll, centrosome,
Learn about chloroplast structure and some of the important components of chloroplasts including chlorophyll, thylakoids, grana, and stoma.
Chlorophyll (Chl) is an agronomic trait associated with photosynthesis and yield. Gibberellin 2-oxidases (GA2oxs) have previously been shown to be involved in Chl accumulation. However, whether and how the PbrGA2ox proteins (PbrGA2oxs) mediate Chl accumu

The resuspended pellet was homogenized to reach a final concentration of 5 mM chlorophyll in 50 mM Tricine (pH 8.0), 400 mM sucrose, and 4 mM MgCl2. The membrane part was then solubilized in a buffer containing 10 mM Tricine-NaOH (pH 8.0), 100 mM sucrose, 2.5 mM MgCl2...
WLP3 has high expression in the coleoptile, leaves at the three-leaf stage, and panicles at the heading stage. Compared to the wild-type (WT), wlp3 exhibited reduced chlorophyll synthesis and significantly decreased expression levels of genes associated with plastid development. Yeast two-hybrid...
Thelight reaction stagetakes place in the presence of light and occurs within the chloroplast grana. The primary pigment used to convert light energy into chemical energy ischlorophyll a. Other pigments involved in light absorption include chlorophyll b, xanthophyll, and carotene. In the light reacti...
After a 10-min incubation on ice, the suspension was centrifuged for 10 min at 15,000g at 4 °C, and the supernatant was mixed with 10× loading dye (750 mM amino caproic acid, 5% Coomassie G-250). This was loaded onto a 7.5–15% acrylamide gel with 20 µg chlorophyll ...
