Molecular Studies of the NADH:ubiquinone Oxidoreductases and Thebo-Type Terminal Oxidase of the Aerobic Respiratory Chain of Escherichia Coli
type: CreativeWork
description: The respiratory chains of aerobic organisms are composed of several membrane-bound proteins, which are responsible for the majority of energy production which occurs in living cells. Three such proteins, two NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductases and a terminal ubiquinol oxidase, from the respiratory chain of the bacterium Escherichia coli are addressed in this thesis. These three enzymes were examined by a variety of genetic and spectroscopic techniques.
