Molecular recognition in protein complexes involved in electron transfer.
Introduction Electron transfer reactions involving protein complexes are important in many biological processes, including photosynthesis, respiration, nitrogen fixation and steroid synthesis. The interprotein electron transfer reaction occurs either by orbital overlap or through a number of chemical bonds in the polypeptide chain that act as pathways for the electrons to communicate with the t...
متن کاملDynamical arrest of electron transfer in liquid crystalline solvents.
We argue that electron transfer reactions in slowly relaxing solvents proceed in the nonergodic regime, making the reaction activation barrier strongly dependent on the solvent dynamics. For typical dielectric relaxation times of polar nematics, electron transfer reactions in the subnanosecond time scale fall into nonergodic regime in which nuclear solvation energies entering the activation bar...
متن کاملThe osmochemistry of electron-transfer complexes.
Detailed molecular mechanisms of electron transfer-driven translocation of ions and of the generation of electric fields across biological membranes are beginning to emerge. The ideas inherent in the early formulations of the chemiosmotic hypothesis have provided the framework for this understanding and have also been seminal in promoting many of the experimental approaches which have been succ...
