Biogenic regions of cyanobacterial thylakoids form contact sites with the plasma membrane
The three-dimensional architecture of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis was determined by in situ cryo-electron tomography. The tips of multiple thylakoids merge and contact the plasma membrane, performing a specialized biogenic function.
