thylakoids - CISMeF

Preferred Label : thylakoids;

MeSH definition : Membranous cisternae of the CHLOROPLAST containing photosynthetic pigments, reaction centers, and the electron-transport chain. Each thylakoid consists of a flattened sac of membrane enclosing a narrow intra-thylakoid space (Lackie and Dow, Dictionary of Cell Biology, 2nd ed). Individual thylakoids are interconnected and tend to stack to form aggregates called grana. They are found in cyanobacteria and all plants.;

MeSH synonym : thylakoid;

MeSH Hyperonym : grana;

MeSH hyponym : thylakoid membrane; Membrane, Thylakoid; Membranes, Thylakoid; Thylakoid Membranes;
