Dear Hazem:
What is an Enzyme? An enzyme is a protein complex that catalyzes a
reaction and in the end remains intact and carries on the same process
again. Right?
We named the Volume 22 (2005) of my Series Advances in Photosynthesis and
Respiration (Springer) as:
" Photosystem II: The Light-Driven Water-Plastoquinone Oxido-reductase"
(edited by Thomas J. Wydrzynski and Kimiyuki Satoh)
We named the Volume 24 (2006)of my Series Advances in Photosynthesis and
Respiration (Springer) as:
" Photosystem I: The Light-Driven Plastocyanin-Ferredoxin Oxido-reductase"
(edited by John H. Golbeck)
Please look up: <http://www.springer.com/series/5599> for the entire Series.
Since you are interested in Chlorophyll a Fluorescence, I wanted you to
know that our Volume 19 is now reprinted in 2010 in paperback, at a very
much reduced price. Please feel free to tell all your students and clients
about it. See <http://www.springer.com/978-90-481-3882-1> for it
Wishing you a Happy New Year 2010,
Govindjee
