The Photosynthetic Membrane
By:Alexander V. Ruban
Published on 2012-09-17 by John Wiley & Sons
The proteins that gather light for plant photosynthesis areembedded within cell membranes in a site called the thylakoidmembrane (or the |photosynthetic membrane|). These proteinsform the light harvesting antenna that feeds with energy a numberof vital photosynthetic processes such as water oxidation andoxygen evolution, the pumping of protons across the thylakoidmembranes coupled with the electron transport chain of thephotosystems and cytochrome b6f complex, and ATP synthesis by ATPsynthase utilizing the generated proton gradient. The Photosynthetic Membrane: Molecular Mechanisms and Biophysicsof Light Harvesting is an introduction to the fundamental designand function of the light harvesting photosynthetic membrane, oneof the most common and most important structures of life. Itdescribes the underlying structure of the membrane, the variety androles of the membrane proteins, the atomic structures of lightharvesting complexes and their macromolecular assemblies, themolecular mechanisms and dynamics of light harvesting and primaryenergy transformations, and the broad range of adaptations todifferent light environments. The book shows, using theexample of the photosynthetic membrane, how complex biologicalstructures utilize principles of chemistry and physics in order tocarry out biological functions. The Photosynthetic Membrane: Molecular Mechanisms of LightHarvesting will appeal to a wide audience of undergraduate andpostgraduate students as well as researchers working in the fieldsof biochemistry, molecular biology, biophysics, plant science andbioengineering.
