Synopsis Radical SAM Enzymes Involved in Tetrapyrrole Biosynthesis and Insertion by : Gunhild Layer
Abstract: The anaerobic biosyntheses of heme, heme d1, and bacteriochlorophyll all require the action of radical SAM enzymes. During heme biosynthesis in some bacteria, coproporphyrinogen III dehydrogenase (CgdH) catalyzes the decarboxylation of two propionate side chains of coproporphyrinogen III to the corresponding vinyl groups of protoporphyrinogen IX. Its solved crystal structure was the first published structure for a radical SAM enzyme. In bacteria, heme is inserted into enzymes by the cytoplasmic heme chaperone HemW, a radical SAM enzyme structurally highly related to CgdH. In an alternative heme biosynthesis route found in archaea and sulfate-reducing bacteria, the two radical SAM enzymes AhbC and AhbD catalyze the removal of two acetate groups (AhbC) or the decarboxylation of two propionate side chains (AhbD). NirJ, a close homologue of AhbC, is required for propionate side chain removal during the formation of heme d1 in some denitrifying bacteria. Biosynthesis of the fifth ring (ring E) of all chlorophylls is based on an unusual six-electron oxidative cyclization step. The sophisticated conversion of Mg-protoporphyrin IX monomethylester to protochlorophyllide is facilitated by an oxygen-independent cyclase termed BchE, which is a cobalamin-dependent radical SAM enzyme. Most of the radical SAM enzymes involved in tetrapyrrole biosynthesis were recognized as such by Sofia et al. in 2001 ( Nucleic Acids Res. 2001, 29, 1097−1106) and were biochemically characterized thereafter. Although much has been achieved, the challenging tetrapyrrole substrates represent a limiting factor for enzyme/substrate cocrystallization and the ultimate elucidation of the corresponding enzyme mechanisms

Synopsis Biological Inorganic Chemistry by : Robert R. Crichton
The importance of metals in biology, the environment and medicine has become increasingly evident over the last twenty five years. The study of the multiple roles of metal ions in biological systems, the rapidly expanding interface between inorganic chemistry and biology constitutes the subject called Biological Inorganic Chemistry. The present text, written by a biochemist, with a long career experience in the field (particularly iron and copper) presents an introduction to this exciting and dynamic field. The book begins with introductory chapters, which together constitute an overview of the concepts, both chemical and biological, which are required to equip the reader for the detailed analysis which follows. Pathways of metal assimilation, storage and transport, as well as metal homeostasis are dealt with next. Thereafter, individual chapters discuss the roles of sodium and potassium, magnesium, calcium, zinc, iron, copper, nickel and cobalt, manganese, and finally molybdenum, vanadium, tungsten and chromium. The final three chapters provide a tantalising view of the roles of metals in brain function, biomineralization and a brief illustration of their importance in both medicine and the environment.Relaxed and agreeable writing style. The reader will not only fiind the book easy to read, the fascinating anecdotes and footnotes will give him pegs to hang important ideas on.Written by a biochemist. Will enable the reader to more readily grasp the biological and clinical relevance of the subject.Many colour illustrations. Enables easier visualization of molecular mechanismsWritten by a single author. Ensures homgeneity of style and effective cross referencing between chapters

Synopsis Photosynthesis by : Julian J. Eaton-Rye
“Photosynthesis: Plastid Biology, Energy Conversion and Carbon Assimilation” was conceived as a comprehensive treatment touching on most of the processes important for photosynthesis. Most of the chapters provide a broad coverage that, it is hoped, will be accessible to advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers looking to broaden their knowledge of photosynthesis. For biologists, biochemists, and biophysicists, this volume will provide quick background understanding for the breadth of issues in photosynthesis that are important in research and instructional settings. This volume will be of interest to advanced undergraduates in plant biology, and plant biochemistry and to graduate students and instructors wanting a single reference volume on the latest understanding of the critical components of photosynthesis.
