Book The Enzymology of the Cell Surface Tension at the Cell Surface

Download or read book The Enzymology of the Cell Surface Tension at the Cell Surface written by Aser Rothstein and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: obvious properties, its structure, composition, electrical properties, me chanical properties, and most particularly, its permeability properties. None of these properties are obviously associated with surface enzymes. What are the functions of the cell surface that may require the presence of enzymes? From a purely hypothetical point of view, the cellular activities in which cell surface enzymes are potentially functional can be divided into two categories; first, those activities related to the production and maintenance of the cell surface structure itself, and second, those activities which are concerned with interactions between the cell and its environment. During growth of a cell, as it enlarges, new structural ma terial must be synthesized and assembled in the cell membrane. Although it is conceivable that new structural material is synthesized in the interior of the cell, it is difficult to visualize its complete synthesis and final assembly in the periphery of the cell, without the assistance of enzymes at the site. In the case of non-growing cells, although no net synthesis of new structural material is necessary, the turnover of the various components by a continuous degradation and resynthesis must be considered as a pos sibility.

Book excerpt: Enzymology at the Membrane Interface, the latest volume in the Methods in Enzymology series, covers a subset of enzymes that work in the environment of the biological cell membrane. This field, called interfacial enzymology, involves a special series of experimental approaches for the isolation and study of these enzymes.

Book The Enzymes of Biological Membranes

Download or read book The Enzymes of Biological Membranes written by Anthony Martonosi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the information currently available on the transport systems of bacterial and animal cell membranes and their mode of coupling to metabolic supply of energy can be found in this volume. Consideration of the participating enzymes dictated the choice of topics: Several transport systems where little information is available on the enzymology of the process are not included, while separate chapters deal with y-glutamyl transpeptidase and intestinal disaccharidases which meet many of the requirements of transport enzymes. The volume also includes two chapters on photosynthetic membranes as a general introduction to the topic. Other aspects of biological transport and photosynthesis will be developed in detail in a forthcoming volume now in preparation. These chapters reveal the excitement and rapid advance of the field, the daily reports of new concepts, new techniques, and new experimental findings which instantly interact to generate further progress. Our aim was to provide a starting point for those who are just beginning, and an opportunity for others to stop, take stock, and start in a new direction. My warmest thanks to all who contributed to this volume.

Book Cell and Model Membrane Interactions

Download or read book Cell and Model Membrane Interactions written by S. Ohki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Membrane interaction is a large research area involving various disciplines. A symposium entitled "Cell and Model Membrane Interactions" which took place in Boston, MA during the 155th American Chemical Society Meeting, April 25, 1990, focused on membrane adhesion and fusion. The topics were explored in studies involving lipids, virus envelopes and cell membranes. Especially discussed, were the roles of polymers, lipids, and proteins on these membrane interactions. Fusion of membrane is an important molecular event which plays a pivotal role in many dynamic cellular processes, such as exocytosis, endocytosis, membrane genesis, viral infection processes, etc. The process includes adhesion of the mem branes, fusion, and finally reorganization of the components of the two membranes. The basic notion shared during the symposium was that membrane hydro phobicity, especially local membrane hydrophobicity is one of the important factors contributing to membrane fusion. Most of the papers are collected here and they are arranged approximately in the same order as they were presented at the sympo sium. These papers are the most up-to-date and representative work at the forefront in each membrane interaction field. I sincerely hope the reader will gain further understanding on membrane interactions especially, membrane and vesicle fusion phenomena through this symposium proceedings volume.

Book The Enzymes of Biological Membranes

Download or read book The Enzymes of Biological Membranes written by Anthony Martonosi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first edition of The Enzymes of Biological Membranes. published in four volumes in 1976, we collected the mass of widely scattered information on membrane-linked enzymes and metabolic processes up to about 1975. This was a period of transition from the romantic phase of membrane biochemistry, preoccupied with conceptual developments and the general properties of membranes, to an era of mounting interest in the specific properties of membrane-linked enzymes analyzed from the viewpoints of modem enzymology. The level of sophistication in various areas of membrane research varied widely; the structures of cytochrome c and cytochrome b were known 5 to atomic detail, while the majority of membrane-linked enzymes had not even been isolated. In the intervening eight years our knowledge of membrane-linked enzymes ex panded beyond the wildest expectations. The purpose of the second edition of The Enzymes of Biological Membranes is to record these developments. The first volume describes the physical and chemical techniques used in the analysis of the structure and dynamics of biological membranes. In the second volume the enzymes and met abolic systems that participate in the biosynthesis of cell and membrane components are discussed. The third and fourth volumes review recent developments in active transport, oxidative phosphorylation and photosynthesis.

Book The Enzymes of Biological Membranes

Download or read book The Enzymes of Biological Membranes written by Anthony N. Martonosi and published by Springer. This book was released on 1976-03 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The romantic phase of membrane biochemistry characterized by conceptual develop ments and an essentially unlimited freedom of choice is gradually coming to a close. Attention is turning from the general, qualitative description of membrane structure toward the specific properties of membrane-linked enzymes and metabolic systems. The purpose of this series is to serve this development by collecting and evaluating the mass of interesting information that is already available widely scattered in the literature. The emphasis will be upon a comprehensive treatment of membrane linked enzymes from the viewpoint of modern enzymology. The general properties of membranes will be mentioned only to the extent that they are relevant to the dis cussion of the enzymes in question. The first of the four volumes will deal with the physical and chemical techniques (X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic and electron spin resonance, fluorescence spectroscopy, immunology, etc.) used in the characterization of membrane enzymes. Chapters are also included on artificial bilayer membranes, chemical modification of membrane enzymes, and on the nature of lipid-protein interaction in membranes. In the next three volumes the enzyme systems participating in the biosynthesis of cell components, active transport, oxydative phosphorylation, and photosynthesis will be analyzed. A brief discussion of hormone receptors is also included. Subsequent volumes may fill in the few but significant gaps in the coverage that for various reasons could not be avoided.
