Abstract:
:Thylakoid proteins and their catabolites have been detected in lipid-protein particles isolated from the stroma of intact chloroplasts obtained from primary leaves of 2-week-old bean seedlings (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv Kinghorn). The lipid-protein particles bear morphological resemblance to plastoglobuli seen in the chloroplasts of senescing leaves, but they are much smaller. They range from 10 to 320 nm in radius, are uniformly stained in thin sections visualized by transmission electron microscopy, and are discernible in the stroma of chloroplasts in corresponding thin-sectioned leaf tissue. The lipid-protein particles contain thylakoid lipids and are enriched in free fatty acids. Specifically, the free-to-esterified fatty acid ratio is about 1:1 in the particles compared to only 1:18 for corresponding thylakoid membranes. Western blot analyses indicate that these particles also contain thylakoid proteins and, in some cases, catabolites of these proteins including the CF1 [beta] and [gamma] subunits of ATPase, cytochrome f, and the 31- and 33-kD proteins of PSII. Lipid-protein particles with similar properties were generated in vitro from isolated, light-stressed thylakoids. Collectively, these data suggest that blebbing of lipid-protein particles may be a means of removing potentially destabilizing macromolecular catabolites from thylakoid membrane bilayers.
