Membrane Bioenergetics

The book contains basic information about the mechanisms of energy conversion in living organisms. It considers systems of substrate, photo- and oxidative phosphorylation, which supply all energy that is necessary for organisms to function. The authors describe ways of generating membrane energy forms as well as their use for ATP synthesis, accumulation of chemicals in cells and organelles, bacteria mobility and heat formation for thermoregulation, etc. In conclusion, they examine practical applications of bioenergetics for cancelling the organism’s aging program.

For university students and postgraduates of biology, specialists in bioenergetics, biochemistry, biophysics, pharmacology, physiology and microbiology.
