Kinesin is a molecular motor that works as a cellular ‘porter’. Its job is to walk along microtubules, carrying membrane-bound bags of chemicals. To do this it must convert the chemical energy of ATP ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Mitochondria have a characteristic ultrastructure with invaginations of the inner membrane called cristae that contain the protein complexes ...

Researchers used a novel phosphate-activation reagent, 2-MeImIm-Cl, in an improved coupling reaction to increase the yield of ADP- or ATP-containing molecules. Unlike traditional reactions, the ...

We show here sodium ion cycling between complex I from Klebsiella pneumoniae and the F1F 0 ATP synthase from Ilyobacter tartaricus in a reconstituted proteoliposome system. In the course of NADH ...

Researchers used a novel phosphate-activation reagent, 2-MeImIm-Cl, in an improved coupling reaction to increase the yield of ADP- or ATP-containing molecules. Unlike traditional reactions, the ...

A straightforward and reproducible synthesis pathway for a diverse range of ATP- and ADP-coupled biomolecules has been developed by modifying an established reagent. Researchers at the Institute for ...

Synaptic transmission is an energy hog. It requires neurons to tap ATP reserves to respond to incoming signals. How do they pull this off, thousands to millions of times per day? A new study ...

All living cells require energy to survive. The energy can be provided by food, by light or, in diverse bacteria, by a myriad of possible environmental materials. These are used in large part to ...
