Cellopedia BETA Stable is good to go!

What is new?

In recent months I tried to change the theme of Cellopedia as well as its core renderer (Recall it was called CRE).

This attempt led to redesign of core renderer to a more stable one.

Some new features in this stable version:

  • Faster render
  • less bug
  • Addition of TABLE tag
  • No break line tag is required to make a new line
  • IE7 Rendering is better

In addition to CRE the design of article page is also changed. This make it easier to read the articles.

Cellopedia and CRE features will be more reviewed in near future.

Screenshots

In these renders Cellopedia used CRE BETA STABLE engine.

ATP Synthase

Introduction

ATP Synthase is an elaborate bio-motor. This complex drives synthesis of the ATP, the energy currency of the cell. This complex uses the free energy of proton gradient across inner mitochondrial membrane to regenerate ATP from it’s precursors ADP and Pi.

Mechanism

Protons in their journey from inter membrane space to matrix induce rotation in c-subunit of ATP Synthase, this in turn provokes rotation of yet other subunit, The gamma subunit. This subunit induce conformational changes in F1 subunits and these events leads to synthesis of a ATP.
