S ummary Photophosphorylation has been achieved in isolated chloroplasts of Phaseolus , without inhibition, by the addition of bovine serum albumin. Cyclic and non‐cyclic photophosphorylation and four partial reactions of photosynthetic phosphorylation were studied in the system with chloroplasts of different ages. There seems to be evidence for a correlation between a minimum structural complexity of the chloroplast and the ability to carry out the reactions studied.
