Book Description
Excluding the biological polymers proteins, lipids and nucleic acids, modified
tetrapyrroles are the biological molecules that have had the greatest impact on
the evolution of life over the past 4 billion years. They are involved in a wide
variety of fundamental processes that underpin central primary metabolism in all
kingdoms of life, from photosynthesis to methanogenesis. Moreover, they bring
colour into the world and it is for this reason that these compounds have been
appropriately dubbed the pigments of life . To understand how and why these
molecules have been so universally integrated into the life processes one has to
appreciate the chemical properties of the tetrapyrrole
