Diagram A below illustrates schematically a classic experiment designed to test the chemi-
osmotic hypothesis. Phospholipid vesicles were made to contain beef heart mitochondrial ATP syn-
thase and bacteriorhodopsin, a light driven proton pump isolated from Halobacterium holobium. Under
light illumination, proton translocation by bacteriorhodopsin results in ATP synthesis when ADP and
inorganic phosphate (Pi) are added to the suspension of vesicles. Diagram B shows a plot of the rate
of ATP synthesis as a function of the proton gradient ApH.
