Pro terns

The major classes of organic compounds common to living systems are lipids pro terns nucleic acids and carbohydrates Carbohydrates are very familiar to us— we call many of them sugars They make up a substantial portion of the food we eat and provide most of the energy that keeps the human engine running Carbohy drates are structural components of the walls of plant cells and the wood of trees Genetic information is stored and transferred by way of nucleic acids specialized derivatives of carbohydrates which we 11 examine m more detail m Chapter 28... 

The most striking thing about proteins is the diversity of their roles m living sys terns siUc is a protein skin and hair are mostly proteins many hormones are proteins a protein carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues where it is stored by another pro tern and all enzymes are proteins...

Complex III is also analogous to the Cyt bef complex of chloroplasts, both with respect to contents (two Cyt b s, one Cyt c, an Fe-S pro tern, and a quinone) and function within the membranes (e.g., interaction with a quinol) the isolated Cyt b f complex can also pass electrons to Cyt c as well as to its natural electron acceptor, plastocyanin. Complex III is also structurally and functionally analogous to a supramolecular protein complex in bacteria.

The inner mitochondrial membrane must be impermeable to most molecules, yet much exchange has to take place between the cytoplasm and the mitochondria. This exchange is mediated by an array of membrane-spanning transporter pro terns (Section 13.4).

A simple approach to obtaining a rough approximation of the combustion temperature involves assuming that the heat of combustion of the pro-pel t is used entirely to heat the product gases to the combustion tern-peratoie, so that... 

Finally, we note that eoneenlrated emulsions are exeel-lent model systems in the development of PFG methods as applied to the general elass of porous sys terns, where the method has a great potential in pro viding relevant and important information.
