They are involved in a wide variety of fundamental processes that underpin central primary metabolism in all kingdoms of life, from photosynthesis to methanogenesis. Moreover, they bring colour into the world and it is for this reason that these compounds have been appropriately dubbed the ‘pigments of life’. To understand how and why these molecules have been so universally integrated into the life processes one has to appreciate the chemical properties of the tetrapyrrole scaffold and, where appropriate, the chemical characteristics of the centrally chelated metal ion. This book addresses why these molecules are employed in Nature, how they are made and what happens to them after they have finished their usefulness.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2009 | | 关键词 | biosynthesis; evolution; metabolism; plants; protein; reductase | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-78518-9 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4419-2691-3 | | isbn_ebook | 978-0-387-78518-9Series ISSN 1431-0414 | | issn_series | 1431-0414 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag New York 2009 |
