The lipid components of the chlorophyll lipoproteins isolated from the leaves of Cayratia japonica, Vicia sativa, and Artemisia princeps were separated and identified by column, thin-layer, and paper chromatographies. The lipids were mainly composed of carotenoids, quinones including plastoquinone, sterols and their esters, di- and monoglycerides, free fatty acids, chlorophylls and their degradation products, glycolipids including plant sulfolipids, and phospholipids, in which the glycolipids were predominant. The fatty acid composi-tion was characteristic depending on each separated lipid component. Comparison of the lipid distributions was made between whole leaf and chlorophyll lipoprotein, and also between chlorophyll lipoproteins from young leaves and from full-grown leaves.
