Interfacial electrochemistry of redox metalloproteins and DNA-based molecules is presently moving towards new levels of structural and functional resolution. This is the result of powerful interdisciplinary efforts. Underlying fundamentals of biological electron and proton transfer is increasingly well understood although with outstanding unresolved issues. Comprehensive bioelectrochemical studies have mapped the working environments for bioelectrochemical electron transfer, supported by the availability of mutant proteins and other powerful biotechnology. Introduction of surface spectroscopy, the scanning probe microscopies, and other solid state and surface physics methodology has finally offered exciting new fundamental and technological openings in interfacial bioelectrochemistry of both redox proteins and DNA-based molecules.
“Inorganic Bioelectrochemistry” provides a thorough and didactic overview of state-of-the-art bioelectrochemistry with prospects for forthcoming development. The book is organized in eight chapters written by leading international experts and covers crucial relevant topics such as electron and proton transfer in metalloprotein systems, electrochemistry and electrocatalysis of redox enzymes, and electrochemistry of DNA-based molecules.
Editorial Reviews
Review
From the reviews:
“This volume is a collection of chapters written by different authors on the electrochemistry of biomolecules, including metalloproteins and DNA. … The goal of editors … is to capture the current understanding of bioinorganic electrochemistry. … The chapters contain many figures and are rich with references to the research articles … . Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals.” (J. A. Bartz, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (11), July, 2008)
“The book ‘Bioinorganic Electrochemistry’ is a collection of reviews authored by prominent specialists. … will be of great value for the bio-community in electrochemistry and also for biochemists interested in charge transfer processes. … I can also recommend it to anybody else who wants to be updated on the latest achievements in this area.” (Fritz Scholz, Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry, Vol. 13, 2009)
