Ion Channels in Native Chloroplast Membranes: Challenges and Potential for Direct Patch-Clamp Studies
Photosynthesis without any doubt depends on the activity of the chloroplast ion channels. The thylakoid ion channels participate in the fine partitioning of the light-generated proton-motive force (p.m.f.). By regulating, therefore, luminal pH, they affect the linear electron flow and non-photochemi...
