Phosphatidylglycerophosphate methyl ester (PGP-Me), a major constituent of the archaeal purple membrane, is essential for the proper proton-pump activity of bacteriorhodopsin (bR).

Mixed monolayers containing chlorophyll a and dim yristoyllecithin (DML) have been investigated by simultaneous thermodynamic, fluorescence and absorption spectroscopic measurements. It has been shown that the solubility limit of chlorophyll a in the fluid, as well as in the solid lipid matrix, is above 20 mol%. This contrasts to previous findings for pheophytin a containing monolayers and indicates the existance of an interaction between the phospholipid head group and the central Mg atom. A fluorescence decrease on solidifying the monolayer was observed and it is suggested that it is due to an enhanced self quenching as a consequence of the reorientation of the porphyrin rings, accompanying the phase transition
