该研究揭示了衣原体和叶绿体NTT识别及跨膜运输ATP的分子机制,为开发针对专性胞内病原体的新型抗生素奠定了分子基础。同时,研究结果不仅深化了人们对叶绿体内共生过程中跨膜能量传递机制的理解,也有助于改造NTT以提高作物光合作用效率和促进农业增产。
在它们的细胞膜上存在一种特殊的ATP运输蛋白,通过等量交换ATP及其水解产物ADP(核苷二磷酸)加磷酸根(Pi),持续从宿主细胞获取能量,确保自身生存繁殖。 有趣的是,类似的ATP运输蛋白也存在于植物叶绿体中。叶绿体负责植物光合作用,是氧气和有机物的 ...
For the first time, researchers have filmed in real time the disassembly of DNA at the atomic scale. This strand separation ...
A recent study by Chinese scientists has revealed the intricate molecular machinery driving energy exchange within chloroplasts, shedding light on a key event in the evolution of plant life. Led by ...
1a). Standard curves are generated to mimic ADP generation during an enzymatic reaction: total adenosine concentration (ATP plus ADP) is kept constant for each sample while the percentage of ADP ...
ATP works by losing the endmost phosphate group when instructed to do so by an enzyme. This reaction releases a lot of energy, which the organism can then use to build proteins, contact muscles, etc.
