1. Photosystem II : organization, function and regulation
Sammanfattning : What makes plants, green algae and cyanobacteria so remarkable is their ability to convert light energy to chemical energy and at the same time evolve oxygen. In order to do so, they have developed a complex molecular machinery involving pigment and co-factor binding multi-protein complexes. LÄS MER
2. Multidimensional Fluorescence Polarization Imaging of Single Light Harvesting Complexes
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents my research journey in the Department of Chemical Physics,Lund University. Multidimensional fluorescence polarization imaging is used to study single LH2s. The method uses linearly polarized excitation light and the emission is detected through a polarizer. LÄS MER
3. The light-harvesting antenna of higher plant photosystem I
Sammanfattning : During photosynthesis, two multi-protein complexes, photosystems (PS) I and II work in tandem to convert the light-energy absorbed by the light-harvesting antennae into chemical energy, which is subsequently used to assimilate atmospheric carbon dioxide into organic carbon compounds. This is the main nutritional basis for life on Earth. LÄS MER
4. Light’EM up! : structural characterization of light-driven membrane protein complexes by cryogenic electron microscopy
Sammanfattning : Photosynthesis is probably the most important process for allowing life to develop into the diverse forms we see today. In this process, solar radiation is used to convert CO2 into biomass. From this process, we obtain oxygen to breathe, sources of food (plant biomass), and the potential for clean and sustainable energy. LÄS MER
5. Molecular Mechanisms Optimizing Photosynthesis during High Light Stress in Plants
Sammanfattning : Oxygenic photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae and cyanobacteria use solar energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into molecular oxygen and carbohydrates. Photosynthesis sustains life on Earth since it provides not only energy for individual growth, but also represents the starting point of the food chain for most living organisms. LÄS MER
