Abstract
Plants are nonmotile life forms that are constantly exposed to changing environmental conditions during the course of their life cycle. Fluctuations in environmental conditions can be drastic during both day–night and seasonal cycles, as well as in the long term as the climate changes. Plants are naturally adapted to face these environmental challenges, and it has become increasingly apparent that membranes and their lipid composition are an important component of this adaptive response. Plants can remodel their membranes to change the abundance of different lipid classes, and they can release fatty acids that give rise to signaling compounds in response to environmental cues. Chloroplasts harbor the photosynthetic apparatus of plants embedded into one of the most extensive membrane systems found in nature. In part one of this review, we focus on changes in chloroplast membrane lipid class composition in response to environmental changes, and in part two, we will detail chloroplast lipid-derived signals.

Abstract
Acyl lipids in Arabidopsis and all other plants have a myriad of diverse functions. These include providing the core diffusion barrier of the membranes that separates cells and subcellular organelles. This function alone involves more than 10 membrane lipid classes, including the phospholipids, galactolipids, and sphingolipids, and within each class the variations in acyl chain composition expand the number of structures to several hundred possible molecular species. Acyl lipids in the form of triacylglycerol account for 35% of the weight of Arabidopsis seeds and represent their major form of carbon and energy storage. A layer of cutin and cuticular waxes that restricts the loss of water and provides protection from invasions by pathogens and other stresses covers the entire aerial surface of Arabidopsis. Similar functions are provided by suberin and its associated waxes that are localized in roots, seed coats, and abscission zones and are produced in response to wounding. This chapter focuses on the metabolic pathways that are associated with the biosynthesis and degradation of the acyl lipids mentioned above. These pathways, enzymes, and genes are also presented in detail in an associated website (ARALIP: http://aralip.plantbiology.msu.edu/). Protocols and methods used for analysis of Arabidopsis lipids are provided. Finally, a detailed summary of the composition of Arabidopsis lipids is provided in three figures and 15 tables.

Abstract
Phosphoglycerolipids are abundant membrane constituents in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. However, glycoglycerolipids are the predominant lipids in chloroplasts of plants and eukaryotic algae and in cyanobacteria. Membrane composition in chloroplasts and cyanobacteria is highly conserved, with monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGD) and digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGD) representing the most abundant lipids. The genes encoding enzymes of galactolipid biosynthesis have been isolated from Arabidopsis. Galactolipids are crucial for growth under normal and phosphate limiting conditions. Furthermore, they are indispensable for maximal efficiency of photosynthesis. A wide variety of glycoglycerolipids is found in different bacteria. These lipids contain glucose or galactose, in some cases also mannose or other sugars with different glycosidic linkages in their head group. Some bacterial species produce unusual glycoglycerolipids, such as glycophospholipids or glycoglycerolipids carrying sugar head groups esterified with acyl residues. A number of genes coding for bacterial glycoglycerolipid synthases have been cloned and the enzymes characterized. In contrast to the breadth of information available on their structural diversity, much less is known about functional aspects of bacterial glycoglycerolipids. In some bacteria, glycoglycerolipids are required for membrane bilayer stability, they serve as precursors for the formation of complex membrane components, or they are crucial to support anoxygenic photosynthesis or growth during phosphate deficiency.

Abstract
Chloroplast envelopes from spinach, isolated at two different pH values, were incubated with UDP[14C]galactose at pH values of 6.0, 7.2 and 8.5 and rates and patterns of galactolipid synthesis were measured. Envelopes isolated at pH 8.5 and considered to be poor in initial diacylglycerol content were generally inhibited, especially at high pH. At this pH, where interlipid galactosyl transfer is very slow, incorporation rates reflect diacylglycerol content. At lower ph values in both types of envelope, interlipid galactosyl transferase is active. The highest rates of interlipid galactosyl transferase are seen at pH 6.0 in diacylglycerol-poor envelopes and at pH 7.2 in diacylglycerol-rich envelopes. The latter type of envelope shows considerable activity of monogalactolipid acylase at low pH 6.0, which seems to compete with interlipid galactosyl transferase for monogalactolipid. After removal of UDPGal and transfer of the envelopes to higher pH, acylmonogalactolipid can be transformed again into monogalactolipid and this regenerated lipid can again be transformed into digalactolipid and into higher-homologous galactolipids. Intact spinach chloroplast in similar experiments behave essentially as isolated envelopes. Results are compared with patterns of galactolipid synthesis in vivo and considered as an indication that interlipid galactosyl transferase may be regulated not only by pH but also by a factor originating in the cytoplasm. Results are also discussed in the light of recent suggestions that galactolipids are synthesized in a multi-enzyme complex in the envelope and also considered as a contribution towards understanding the regulation of the mono-/digalactolipid ratio. The observations on the behaviour of acyltransferase and the reversibility of its reaction may constitute a first step to an understanding of a physiological role for this enzyme.
