26) Briefly describe, using words or simple diagrams, the chemiosmotic theory for coupling oxidation to phosphorylation in mitochondria. (5 pts)
The chemiosmotic theory for ATP production was proposed by Peter Mitchell.
According to this theory, electrons from NADH oxidation travel
via electron carriers to the terminal electron acceptor. During the
transport of these electrons, protons are translocated from
mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space. This translocation
creates a proton gradient which contributes to chemical gradient (
pH) and
electrical gradient (
) . The
matrix becomes alkaline because of low protons and negative because
of protons having positive charge move to the intermembrane
space.These gradient together constitute the electrochemical
gradient which exerts proton motive force to drive the movement of
protons back into the matrix. The inner mitochondrial membrane is
impermeable to protons, which as a result reenter the matrix via
FoF1 particles ( ATP synthase) . The synthase utilizes the proton
motive force exerted by protons to synthesize ATP from ADP and
inorganic phosphate.
