The non-bilayer lipid MGDG stabilizes the major light-harvesting complex (LHCII) against unfolding

Abstract In the photosynthetic apparatus of plants a high proportion of LHCII protein is needed to integrate 50% non-bilayer lipid MGDG into the lamellar thylakoid membrane, but whether and how the stability of the protein is also affected is not known. Here we use single-molecule force spectroscopy...
