Description
This new edition of
Bioenergetics presents a clear and up-to-date explanation of the chemiosmotic theory and covers mitochondria,
bacteria, and chloroplasts. It takes account of the many newly determined structures, such as ATP synthase and the two photosystems of
photosynthesis, that provide molecular insight into chemiosmotic energy transduction. This edition includes additional color figures
of protein structures and many newly drawn illustrations designed to enable the reader to grasp the fundamental insights that are derived
from knowing the structure. Every chapter has been extensively revised and updated and a new chapter on the study of the bioenergetics
of mitochondria in the intact cell is included to satisfy the enormous interest in this topic. Written for students and researchers alike,
this book is the most current text on the chemiosmotic theory and membrane bioenergetics available.
Audience:
Undergraduates, graduates, postgraduates, and researchers working in biochemistry and the biological sciences.
