6. Structural and Functional Studies of Diiron Carboxylate Proteins
Abstract : Iron is essential to all life; it is a vital component of many proteins in humans as well as plants and bacteria. Because of the ability of iron to activate oxygen, it is often found in proteins that interact with oxygen in some way. READ MORE

7. Biochemical and Immunological Investigation of Quinol-Cytochrome c Reductase
Abstract : In order to understand the mechanism of electron and proton transport within mitochondrial ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase (Complex III), we have undertaken a biochemical and immunological investigation regarding the structure, function and topology of its subunits. A major part of this investigation deals with the two largest subunits, the so-called core proteins, which make up approximately 50 percent of the total Complex III protein. READ MORE

8. Structural studies and design of Di-iron carboxylate proteins
Abstract : Di-iron carboxylate proteins perform a wide range of chemical reactions in the cell. These reactions often involve activation of dioxygen to generate highly oxidative species that can be used in catalysis. One member of the di-iron carboxylate family is the enzyme ribonucleotide reductase (RNR). READ MORE

9. Structural studies on aerobic and anaerobic respiratory complexes
Abstract : All respiratory pathways, whether aerobic or anaerobic, are based on formation of an electrochemical proton gradient called proton motive force (pmf) that drives ATP formation. Membrane-bound respiratory complexes translocate protons across the membrane from a region of low [H+] and negative electrical potential to a region of high [H+] and positive electrical potential.

10. Paramagnetic states of diiron carboxylate proteins
Abstract : Diiron carboxylate proteins constitute an important class of metall-containing enzymes. These proteins perform a multitude of reactions in biological systems that normally involve activation of molecular oxygen at the diiron site. READ MORE
