  1. 6. Structure and Function of Cytochrome c Oxidase

    Författare :Gisela Brändén; Peter Brzezinski; Mårten Wikström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytochrome c oxidase; proton pumping; proton transfer; electron transfer; X-ray crystallography; flow flash; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Aerobic organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans, obtain their energy through the process of respiration. Electrons from the breakdown of food are transported through the membrane-bound enzyme complexes of the respiratory chain, to the terminal acceptor molecule, oxygen. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Structure Analysis of a Transient Protein Complex - NMR, X-ray crystallographic and Mass Spectrometric Studies of the Soluble Domains of the Proton-Pump Transhydrogenase from E. coli

    Författare :Tomas Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nuclear magnetic resonance; proton-translocating transhydrogenase; structure; interactions; x-ray crystallography;

    Sammanfattning : Interactions between macromolecules in the cell are fundamental to life. However, many interactions are of a transient nature and are as such difficult to study at the atomic level using existing techniques. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Generation and exploitation of proton motive force: Biochemical and structural analysis of three bacterial integral membrane proteins

    Författare :Pontus Emanuel Gourdon; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; X-ray crystallography; AcrB; structure; proteorhodopsin; multi-drug resistance; transhydrogenase; membrane proteins; proton motive force;

    Sammanfattning : Proton motive force, a necessity for all living cells, is generated and exploited by asignificant number of membrane-bound enzymes and transporters. The focus of thisthesis was to understand the physiological relevance, structure and mechanism of threesuch bacterial enzymes: proteorhodopsin; transhydrogenase; and AcrB. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Acceptor-Doped BaZrO3 Perovskite: Synthesis, Structure and Proton Conductivity

    Författare :Istaq Ahmed; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Impedance spectroscopy; Perovskite; Neutron diffraction; Rietveld refinement; BaZrO3.; Proton conductor;

    Sammanfattning : Acceptor-doped perovskite oxides exhibit significant proton conductivity in hydrogen containing atmospheres. Therefore, they have potential for use as separator materials for various electrochemical devices including gas sensors, electrolysers and fuel cells. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Regulation of proton-coupled electron transfer in cytochrome c oxidase : The role of membrane potential, proton pathways and ATP

    Författare :Markus Björck; Peter Brzezinski; Thorsten Friedrich; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytochrome c oxidase; charge transfer; membrane potential; membrane protein; mitochondria; ATP; proton pump; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Cytochrome c oxidase (CytcO) is the final electron acceptor of the respiratory chain. In this chain a current of electrons, derived from degradation of nutrients, along with protons, are used to reduce oxygen to water. The reaction is exergonic and the excess energy is used to pump protons across the membrane. LÄS MER
