43+ Atp Synthase Definition Biology Background. Atp synthase is an enzyme that directly generates adenosine triphosphate (atp) during the process of cellular respiration. As a proton passes through this channel.
Atp synthases an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of atp from the phosphorylation of adp with inorganic phosphate, using a form of energy, such as the energy from a proton gradient. Detailed information on atp synthase (fof1 complex, or f1 atpase) in form of faq. Atp synthase is an important enzyme that provides energy for the cell to use through the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate.
The f1 catalytic domain of the the subunit compositions of bacterial and chloroplast atp synthases are simpler than those from mitochondria 12 13 14, and the complexes are monomeric.
The f1 catalytic domain of the the subunit compositions of bacterial and chloroplast atp synthases are simpler than those from mitochondria 12 13 14, and the complexes are monomeric. Bacterial atp synthases have been studied extensively because they are the simplest form of the enzyme and because of the relative ease of genetic manipulation of these. As a result, atp is converted to adp (having lost a terminal phosphate atom) while the nadph is converted to nadp+. The f1 catalytic domain of the the subunit compositions of bacterial and chloroplast atp synthases are simpler than those from mitochondria 12 13 14, and the complexes are monomeric.
