Structure, function and regulation of the H+-ATPases from chloroplasts

  • Chapter
Bioenergetics

Part of the book series: Bioelectrochemistry: Principles and Practice ((BPP,volume 4))

Abstract

Biological systems exchange energy and matter with their surroundings: thermodynamically they are open systems (see chapter 1). For capturing of light and for uptake of nutrients a number of different mechanisms have been invented during the evolution, some of them are described in the preceding chapters. Light energy and the energy of nutrients cannot be used directly in the cells as energy source for the different biochemical processes connected with life: work (locomotion, breathing etc.), synthesis of new compounds (regeneration, reproduction), transport of nutrients, ions, etc. All biological systems use as direct energy source adenosinetriphosphate, ATP, i.e. they use the free enthalpy change (“Gibbs free energy change”) connected with the hydrolysis of the β-γ-phosphate bond of ATP for driving biochemical reactions. The structure of ATP is shown in Fig. 1.
