Description

<p>Thylakoid is the nanostructure that can be found through photosynthetic prokaryote cyanobacteria to chloroplasts of plants. This membrane system has conserved composition of membrane lipids and protein complexes, and provides sites for photosynthetic electron transport. Although, functions of photosynthetic protein complexes have been well characterized, there is only few report describing mechanism of the thylakoid development. In this review, we summarized recent advances in thylakoid research on the proteins involved in thylakoid development and the enzymes for thylakoid lipid synthesis.</p>
