Table 3. Surface area occupied by galactolipid and photosynthetic complexes.
Values were retrieved from the corresponding references. MGDG and DGDG surfaces correspond to the minimal molecular area. The surfaces of PSII-LHCII, PSI, and Cyt b6f complexes correspond to the surface exposed to the stroma (19*26 nm, 20*15 nm, and 90*55 Å, respectively).
