Synthesis of Membrane Proteins during Greening

The greening process is accompanied by de novo synthesis of protein, as shown by pulse labeling with radioactive precursors and analysis of 

Development of Photosynthetic Activity during Membrane Formation 

Analysis of the development of photosynthetic activity has been carried out concomitantly with the study of protein, pigment, and lipid syn- 

The data shown in Figs. 8 and 21 demonstrate that the changes in the specific activity of the Mehler reaction (calculated as rate of methylvio-logen-mediated oxygen uptake per chlorophyll, using ascorbate-DCIP as 

The changes observed in the protein, lipid, and pigment compositions and photosynthetic activity also correlate in time with marked morphological changes in the general appearance of the thylakoids within the chloroplast, as observed in thin sections by electron microscopy (Figs. 22, 23).
