Figure 2A and B: The formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP); (A) The structure of ATP synthase and (B) Demonstration that ATP synthase has a rotary motor.

Introduction:

Chemiosmosis is the second stage of the oxidative phosphorylation after the electron transport chain (ETC). As a result of the transport of electrons across the respiratory chain in ETC, a proton concentration gradient takes place to the intermembrane space from the mitochondrial matrix. In chemiosmosis, the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) occurs by the influx of the protons back into the matrix of the mitochondria.
