All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freeDescribe three classes of inhibitors known to decrease rates of ATP synthesis and give examples of each.
Who first proposed the chemiosmotic theory, and how does it explain the role of proton-motive force in ATP synthesis?
Describe the two mechanisms by which protons are thought to be translocated across the inner mitochondrial membrane by electron transport system protein complexes.
Describe the binding change mechanism model with regard to the functional role of the \(\gamma\) sub-unit in mediating the synthesis of \(\sim 3\) ATP for each \(360^{\circ}\) rotation.
Name two mitochondrial membrane translocase proteins, and describe their functions in mediating ongoing ATP synthesis by the ATP synthase complex.
