Generation of rotation
For the synthesis of each ATP, the -subunit rotates through 120 12 c-subunits/ring
H+/ATP = 4 H+/ATP = 3.3 H+/ATP = 4.7
10 c-subunits in S. cerevisiae
14 c-subunits in chloroplasts
P/O ratio in mammalian mitochondria NADH 2e- to O2 =10 H+ pumped out + Succinate 2e to O2 = 6 H pumped out ADP/ATP exchange + Pi/H+ symport = 1 H+ in ATP synthase ATP synthesis H /ATP = 8/3 = 2.7 H+/ATP = 3.7
