Page "Thylakoid" Paragraph 14

According to these studies, the thylakoid proteome consists of at least 335 different proteins.

Out of these, 89 are in the lumen, 116 are integral membrane proteins, 62 are peripheral proteins on the stroma side, and 68 peripheral proteins on the lumenal side.

Additional low-abundance lumenal proteins can be predicted through computational methods.

Of the thylakoid proteins with known functions, 42 % are involved in photosynthesis.

The next largest functional groups include proteins involved in protein targeting, processing and folding with 11 %, oxidative stress response ( 9 %) and translation ( 8 %).
