Synopsis

Presents an explanation of the chemiosmotic theory, and covers mitochondria, bacteria, and chloroplasts. This title takes account of the many determined structures, such as ATP synthase and the two photosystems of photosynthesis, that provide molecular insight into chemiosmotic energy transduction.

About this title

Review:

"Not only is Bioenergetics 3 comprehensive, but the material is presented in a reassuringly accessible form. ...this text is supremely successful."
-THE BIOCHEMIST (December 2003)
"Bioenergetics 3 is a worthy successor to the second edition, and one that I can enthusiastically recommend."
―Aubrey D.N.J. de Grey University of Cambridge for MITOCHONDRION (2002)

From the Back Cover:

Extensively revised, the new edition of this highly successful book takes into account the many newly determined protein structures, such as ATP synthase and the two photosystems of photosynthesis, that provide molecular insight into chemiosmotic energy transduction, as well as reviewing the explosive advances in 'mitochondria physiology'-the role of the mitochondria in the life and death of the cell.

Covering mitochondria, bacteria and chloroplasts, Bioenergetics 3 provides a clear and comprehensive account of chemiosmotic theory. The figures have been carefully designed to be memorable and convey the key functional and mechanistic information.

Key Features
* Chapter on the study of bioenergetics of mitochondria in the intact cell
* Appendix listing protein structure resources
* Additional colour plates of protein structures
* Many newly drawn illustrations
* Website

Written for students and researchers alike, this book has become the standard textbook on chemiosmotic theory and membrane bioenergetics. Bioenergetics 3 will be essential reading for undergraduates, graduate and postgraduate students working in biochemistry, molecular biology and the biological sciences, and established researchers who require an overview of the latest advances in this dynamic field.
