Abstract:
:CURT1 proteins induce membrane curvature to grana margins in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) thylakoids. A domain sharing sequence and structural features with CURT1 is found in some cyanobacterial aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) that show an unusual localization to the thylakoid membranes. Evolutionary scenarios and functional implications are discussed in this article.
