unusual facts about electron transfer



Abraham Nitzan

Later work has focused on electron solvation, transfer and transport in molecular environment and at interfaces, culminated in a series of studies (with Mark Ratner, Michael Galperin, Dvira Segal and others) on molecular electronics.

COX17

Cytochrome c oxidase (COX), the terminal component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, catalyzes the electron transfer from reduced cytochrome c to oxygen.

Creutz–Taube complex

The ion is named after Carol Creutz, who first prepared the complex, and her thesis advisor Henry Taube, who received a Nobel Prize in Chemistry for this and related discoveries on electron-transfer.

Lipid bilayer characterization

The most common system is the silver/silver chloride electrode since this reaction is stable, reversible, involves a single electron transfer and can produce large currents.

Phosphorylation

Recently, EThcD has been developed combining electron-transfer and higher-energy collision dissociation.
