10:45Roberto Bassi The role of structural reorganization in the regulation of photosynthetic light use efficiency .
11:15 Egbert Boekema Supramolecular structure of the thylakoid membrane investigated by electron microscopy
11:45 Conrad Mullineaux Thylakoid membrane reorganization for regulation and repair of the photosynthetic apparatus in cyanobacteria
12:15 Robert Niederman Development and Dynamics of Bacterial Photosynthetic Membranes
The dynamic response of energy-converting membranes to an ever-changing environment is essential for the survival and performance of photosynthetic organisms. This session gives insights in membrane dynamics, ranging from the whole membrane level to individual protein complexes in higher plants including C4 plants, green algae, cyanobacteria, and purple bacteria.
