What (who) is electron acceptor - definition


Electron acceptor         
CHEMICAL ELEMENT OR COMPOUND THAT ACCEPTS ONE OR SEVERAL ELECTRONS TRANSFERRED TO IT FROM ANOTHER ELEMENT OR COMPOUND
Terminal electron acceptor; Reduced acceptor; Electron receptor
An electron acceptor is a chemical entity that accepts electrons transferred to it from another compound. It is an oxidizing agent that, by virtue of its accepting electrons, is itself reduced in the process.
Electron-transferring flavoprotein         
FLAVOPROTEINS THAT SERVE AS SPECIFIC ELECTRON ACCEPTORS FOR A VARIETY OF DEHYDROGENASES
Electron-transferring flavoproteins; Electron transferring flavoprotein; Electron transferring flavoproteins; Electron transfer protein; Electron transfer flavoprotein; Electron-transfer flavoprotein
An electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) or electron transfer flavoprotein complex (CETF) is a flavoprotein located on the matrix face of the inner mitochondrial membrane and functions as a specific electron acceptor for primary dehydrogenases, transferring the electrons to terminal respiratory systems such as electron-transferring-flavoprotein dehydrogenase. They can be functionally classified into constitutive, "housekeeping" ETFs, mainly involved in the oxidation of fatty acids (Group I), and ETFs produced by some prokaryotes under specific growth conditions, receiving electrons only from the oxidation of specific substrates (Group II).
Electron magnetic moment         
SPIN OF AN ELECTRON
Electron spin; Electron Magnetic Moment; Electron magnetic dipole moment
In atomic physics, the electron magnetic moment, or more specifically the electron magnetic dipole moment, is the magnetic moment of an electron resulting from its intrinsic properties of spin and electric charge. The value of the electron magnetic moment is The electron magnetic moment has been measured to an accuracy of relative to the Bohr magneton.
