摘要

In many biological membranes, the major lipids are "non-bilayer lipids," which in purified form cannot be arranged in a lamellar structure. The structural and functional roles of these lipids are poorly understood. This work demonstrates that the in vitro association of the two main components of a membrane, the non-bilayer lipid monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGD6) and the lhlorophyll-a/b light-harvesting antenna protein of photosystem II (LHOI) of pea thylakoids, leads to the formation of large, ordered lamellar structures: (I) thin-section electron microscopy and circular dichroism spectroscopy reveal that the addition of MGDG induces the transformation of isolated, disordered macroaggregates of LHCll into stacked lamellar aggregates with a long-range chiral order of the complexes; (iI1 small-angle x-ray scattering discloses that LHCIl perturbs the structure of the pure lipid and destroys the inverted hexagonal phase: and (iii) an analysis of electron micro- graphs of negatively stained 2D crystals indicates that in MGDG- i LHCII the complexes are found in an ordered macroarray. It is E Proposed that, by limiting the space available for MGDG in the macroaggregate, LHClI inhibits formation of the inverted hexag- onal phase of lipids: in thylakoids, a spatial limitation is likely to he imposed by the high concentration of membrane-associated proteins.
