Document Summary

Series of integral membrane proteins, located in the inner membrane of a mitochondrion. Involved in transferring protons (h+ ) from the matrix to the intermembrane space. Creating/maintaining the proton concentration gradient no atp looooooooooool. Electrons from nadh and fadh2 are transported through the series of membrane bound proteins, to fuel the transfer of protons (h+ ) from the matrix to the intermembrane space. Water is by product and remember o2 is final e acceptor. Proton motive force and chemiosmosis: proton motive force = (source of energy) potential energy due to concentration gradient (ph) of protons and the charge gradient (voltage) across the membrane. Supplying energy for chemiosmosis: chemiosmosis = (mechanism that benefits from energy) harnessing the energy present in the proton gradient to drive chemical reactions (atp formation) Chemiosmosis and atp synthesis ---atp synthase catalyzes oxidative phosphorylation. H+ gradient across the membrane (chemiosmosis: atp synthase embedded in inner mitochondrial membrane.
