Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) and the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have solved a long ...
This implies that at low respiration rates, only electron carriers with modestly negative reduction potentials are involved, such as menaquinone, rubredoxin, rubrerythrin or some flavodoxins.
The hydrogen atoms of [4Fe-4S] type ferredoxin, one of the electron carriers, have been visualized and both experiments and calculations have revealed the mechanisms that control the redox potential.
The electron carriers A0, A1, FX, FA/FB have a very low reduction potential compared to that of oxygen. This suggests that they can easily pass electrons to oxygen and produce reactive oxygen species.
The hydrogen atoms of [4Fe-4S] type ferredoxin, one of the electron carriers, have been visualized and both experiments and calculations have revealed the mechanisms that control the redox potential.
To realize a high transport efficiently, the carrier, an electron or a hole, should delocalize between molecules as a matter wave (Fig. 1(b)).
UC Santa Barbara researchers have achieved the first-ever “movie” of electric charges traveling across the interface of two different semiconductor materials. Using scanning ultrafast electron (SUEM) ...
