Contents:
Diversity of the heme-copper superfamily in Archaea: insights from genomics and structural modeling / James Hemp, Robert B. Gennis Structure of Photosystems I and II / Petra Fromme, Ingo Grotjohann Microbial rhodopsins: scaffolds for ion pumps, channels, and sensors / Johann P. Klare, Igor Chizhov, Martin Engelhard Life close to the thermodynamic limit: how methanogenic Archaea conserve energy / Uwe Deppenmeier, Volker Müller ATP synthesis by decarboxylation phosphorylation / Peter Dimroth, Christoph von Ballmoos The three families of respiratory NADH dehydrogenases / Stefan Kerscher ... [et al. Hydrogenases and H+-reduction in primary energy conservation / Paulette M. Vignais A structural perspective on mechanism and function of the cytochrome bc1 complex / Carola Hunte ... [et al.] Regulatory mechanisms of proton-translocating FoF1-ATP synthase / Boris A Feniouk, Masasuke Yoshida.
Summary: he present book addresses fundamental questions of biological energy transformation and conservation, with a focus on those processes which can now be understood on a structural basis. Current knowledge of selected examples of the biological energy conservation machinery such as cellular oxygen respiration, light-driven energy converters, and fermentation is reviewed. The machinery is highly variable, particularly that within microorganisms, but all of these devices universally rely on one unique underlying physico-chemical principle. The book is a rich source for specialists interested in recent developments in bioenergetics research and novices in the field alike.
