چکیده

Basierend auf der Detailstruktur der Thylakoidmembran wird ein allgemein gültiger molekularer Mechanismus für den Protonentransport über biologische Membranen vorgeschlagen. Es wird an­ genommen, daß aufgrund einer Redoxreaktion auf der Membranaußenseite eine Umpolarisierung innerhalb der Phospholipidschicht induziert wird, die zu einer Protonentranslokation führt. In diesem Pumpmodell wird die anisotrope protolytische Reaktion an einer amphoteren Phosphogruppe und einer an der Innenseite der Membran fixierten PO®-Gruppe bewerkstelligt. Die Um­ polarisierung dieser Molekülgruppierung und ihrer Hydrathülle erfolgt durch die Einführung eines Dipols in einer Redoxreaktion, bei der ein Elektron über eine Distanz von ca. 20 — 25 Ä auf der Membranaußenseite transferiert wird.

Addition of clidinium-C to the 14-day proton-pump inhibitor-based triple therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication

Background: Triple therapy with a proton pump inhibitor and two antibiotics in Helicobacter pylori (HP) eradication is widely accepted, but this combination fails in a considerable number of cases. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of clidinium-C addition on HP eradication and to investigate the efficacy and safety of clidinium-C in prevention of drugs' side effects. Methods: A ...

Evaluation of Immobilized Bacteriorhodopsin’s Function by Laser Irridiation

Bacteriorhodopsin (BR) is a retinal protein that is a light-driven proton pump and has an important role in photosynthesis in archaebacterium Halobacterium salinarum. The BR molecule absorbs light and photochemical changes occur in it, and different intermediates will be produced in its photochemical cycle that some of them like P and Q intermediates have a long half-life. There have been many ...

Pantoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, increases orthodontic tooth movement in rats

Objective(s):Pantoprazole, is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) prescribed for the treatment of upper gastrointestinal disorders, which in high doses has been suggested to decrease calcium absorption leading to hypocalcaemia and therefore osteoporosis. The aim of this study was to assess whether pantoprazol, could alter the rate of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in rats. Materials and Methods: A ...

Antibiotic resistance is a phenomenon in which antibiotic used to treat bacteria becomes useless due to resistance mechanism. Increased drug resistance and occurrence of Multiple Drug Resistance in bacteria specificity nosocomial and Urinary Tract Infection bacteria has reduced the possibilities of treating these infectious diseases. Efflux pumps are one of the major mechanism of MDR in bacteri...

Dynamics of cytochrome bf complex of photosynthesis apparatus

Photosynthesis is a process under which, the radiative energy is converted into the chemical one. Compared to the man-made devices, the photosynthesis apparatus is much more efficient. This high efficiency comes from its elaborate structure, very fast transition rates and a complex electron and proton transfer chain among the subunits of the apparatus. Its main subunits (Photosystem I (PSI), bf...
