Supramolecular organization of photosystem II in green plants

► We discuss the composition of supercomplexes of major and minor LHCII and PSII. ► We discuss techniques like freeze-fracture EM, AFM and cryo electron tomography. ► We discuss models describing the overall topology of the thylakoid membranes. ► We correlate protein-protein interactions and the shape of the membranes. ► We correlate supramolecular organization and short-term regulatory mechanisms.
