Comprehensive up-to-date treatment of molecular bioenergetic
mechanisms Authors are the inventors of this branch within modern
biology Written also for advanced undergraduate and graduate
students in biophysics, biology and medicinal chemistry Principles
of Bioenergetics summarizes one of the quickly growing branches of
modern biochemistry. Bioenergetics concerns energy transductions
occurring in living systems and this book pays special attention to
molecular mechanisms of these processes. The main subject of the
book is the "energy coupling membrane" which refers to inner
membranes of intracellular organelles, for example, mitochondria
and chloroplasts. Cellular cytoplasmic membranes where respiratory
and photosynthetic energy transducers, as well as ion- transporting
ATP-synthases (ATPases) are also part of this membrane. Significant
attention is paid to the alternative function of mitochondria as
generators of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that mediate programmed
death of cells (apoptosis and necrosis) and organisms
(phenoptosis). The latter process is considered as a key mechanism
of aging which may be suppressed by mitochondria-targeted
antioxidants.
