This book is a tribute to three outstanding scientists, Professors Jan Anderson FRS, Leslie Dutton FRS and John Walker FRS, Nobel Laureate. Covering some of the most recent advances in the fields of Bioenergetics and Photosynthesis, this book is a compilation of contributions from leading scientists actively involved in understanding the natural biological processes associated with the flow of energy in biological cells. The lectures found in this significant volume were presented at a meeting in March 2016 in Singapore to commemorate the outstanding research in this area.

The contents begin with the ideas, specially the contribution from Nobel Laureate Rudolph Marcus, who is well-known for creating the theory of electron transport reactions. This is followed by contributions of many others on various aspects of respiratory and photosynthetic transport chains as well as the dynamic regulation of light harvesting and electron transport events in oxygenic photosynthesis. The book is highly recommended to postgraduate students and researchers who are interested in various aspects of bioenergetic cycles.

Contents:

  • Maquette Strategy for Creation of Light- and Redox-Active Proteins (Nathan M Ennist, Joshua A Mancini, Dirk B Auman, Chris Bialas, Martin J Iwanicki, Tatiana V Esipova, Bohdana M Discher, Christopher C Moser and P Leslie Dutton)
  • Free, Stalled, and Controlled Rotation Single Molecule Experiments on F1-ATPase and Their Relationships (Sándor Volkán-Kacsó and Rudolph A Marcus)
  • The Role of the H-Channel in Cytochrome c Oxidase: A Commentary (Mårten Wikström)
  • Cytochrome c Oxidase: Insight into Functions from Studies of the Yeast S Cerevisiae Homologue (Peter R Rich)
  • Femtosecond Infrared Crystallography of Photosystem II Core Complexes: Watching Exciton Dynamics and Charge Separation in Real Space and Time (Marius Kaucikas, James Barber, Thomas Renger and Jasper J van Thor)
  • Bioenergetics, Water Splitting and Artificial Photosynthesis (James Barber)
  • A Quest for the Atomic Resolution of Plant Photosystem I (Nathan Nelson)
  • Rubisco Activase: The Molecular Chiropractor of the World's Most Abundant Protein (Devendra Shivhare and Oliver Mueller-Cajar)
  • Adaptive Reorganisation of the Light Harvesting Antenna (Alexander V Ruban)
  • Thylakoid Membrane Dynamics in Higher Plants (Haniyeh Koochak, Meng Li and Helmut Kirchhoff)
  • Oxygenic Photosynthesis — Light Reactions within the Frame of Thylakoid Architecture and Evolution (Sari Järvi, Marjaana Rantala and Eva-Mari Aro)
  • Estimation of the Cyclic Electron Flux Around Photosystem I in Leaf Discs (Jiancun Kou, Duncan Fitzpatrick, Da-Yong Fan, Shunichi Takahashi, Riichi Oguchi and Wah Soon Chow)
  • The Contribution of Electron Transfer After Photosystem I to Balancing Photosynthesis (Guy Hanke and Renate Scheibe)
  • Cyclic Electron Flow in Cyanobacteria and Eukaryotic Algae (A W D Larkum, M Szabo, D Fitzpatrick and J A Raven)

Readership: Postgraduate students, researchers and specialists interested in various aspects of respiratory and photosynthetic electron transport chains.
