About the Book: Mechanisms of Primary Energy Transduction in Biology
This book describes the events of primary energy transduction in life
processes. Life as we know it depends on pumping protons across membranes. New
tools to study the protein complexes involved has led to recent intensified
progress in the field.
Primary Energy Transduction in Biology focusses on recent structural results
and new biophysical insights. These have been made possible by recent advances
in high-resolution protein structures, in physical techniques to study reactions
in real time, and in computational methods to study and refine both structures
and their dynamics. Written and edited by leading experts,
