ETC Flashcards
ATP synthase
Helps H get back since the cristae is impermeable. Phosphorylates 3 ADP to 3 ATP. Complex V, two,domains F1 F0
Reversible
Which heme cannot be removed from protein even after unfolded
Heme C because it’s covalently bound to cytochrome C through thioester bonds to two Cys residues
During the transfer of electrons to O2
The energy released is used to translocation protons across inner membrane
F1
Domain in ATP synthese
Catalyze synthesis of ATP
Inner mitochondrial membrane has a transporter for
ATP
If ETC is operation the pH will be
pH in matrix will be higher than in inter membrane space
Mitchell’s chemiosmotic hypothesis
Membrane impermeable to protons
Pumps protons out
Depends on ADP P
ATPase is reversible
How many ATP per NAD
2.5
Uncoupling of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation
Stops mitochondrial ATP formation but still consumes O2
The proton motive force
Includes a pH gradient
Electrical potential gradient
Used of active transport
Synthesizes ATP
