Lipid-protein interactions in thylakoid membranes, and in the subthylakoid membrane fractions containing either photosystem 1 or photosystem 2, have been studied by using spin-labeled analogues of the thylakoid membrane lipid components, monogalactosyldiacylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, and phosphatidylcholine. The electron spin resonance spectra of the spin-labeled lipids all consist of two components, one corresponding to the fluid lipid environment in the membranes and the other to the motionally restricted membrane lipids interacting directly with the integral membrane proteins. Spectral subtraction has been used to quantitate the fraction of the membrane lipids in contact with the membrane proteins and to determine the selectivity between the different lipid classes for the lipid-protein interaction. The fractions of motionally restricted lipid in the thylakoid membrane are 0.36, 0.39, and 0.53, for the spin-labeled monogalactosyldiacylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, the phosphatidylglycerol, respectively. Spin-labeled monogalactosyldiacylglycerol exhibits very little preferential interaction over phosphatidylchline, which suggests that part of the role of monogalactosyldiacylglycerol in thylakoid membranes is structural, as is the case for phosphatidylcholine in mammalian membranes. Spin-labeled phosphatidylglycerol shows a preferential interaction over the corresponding monogalactosyldiacylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine analogues, in contrast to the common behavior of this lipid in mammalian systems. This pattern of lipid selectivity is preserved in both the photosystem 1 and photosystem 2 enriched subthylakoid membrane fractions.
