Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a process by which plants (and some bacteria, and some protistans) use the sunlight to produce sugar, which cellular respiration converts into ATP, the "fuel" used by all living things.

Photosynthetic Protein Complexes
A Structural Approach

Perfectly timed, this handbook covers many important aspects of the topic that have only recently been understood - making this a truly comprehensive work. With its extensive use of color, it surveys the most important proteins involved in photosynthesis, discussing the structural information we have at our disposal. Most chapters are dedicated to one protein, while a few also summarize general associated concepts. The book also includes a CD-ROM that contains data files and animations to allow readers to visualize many of the complicated proteins presented. A must for anyone studying photosynthesis and structural biology, as well as those working in the plant and crop biotechnology industry.
