In plants external stimuli are perceived through a cascade of signals and signal transduction pathways. Protein phosphorylation and de-phosphorylation is one of the most important transduction paths for the perception of signals in plants. The highest concentrations of plant phospho-proteins are located in chloroplasts. This facilitates the protection of thylakoid membranes from stress-induced damage and augments adaptive strategies in plants. In this review, the protein kinases associated with phosphorylation of thylakoid membrane protein, and the adaptive changes in thylakoid membrane architecture and developmental cues are given. The presence of membrane bound kinases in thylakoid membranes have evolutionary implications for the signal transduction pathways and the photosynthetic gene expression for thylakoid membrane protein dynamics.

Additional key words: D1 protein; evolution; gene expression; light-harvesting complex 2; phosphorylation; photosystems
