Boyer showed that contrary to the previously accepted belief, the energy requiring step in making ATP is not the synthesis from ADP and phosphate, but the initial binding of the ADP and the phosphate ...

the mechanism of ATP synthesis, and why the biological world has adapted this type of very complicated process for the synthesis of ATP. Research is being pursued in three interacting areas to solve ...

The flow of protons through amazing protein turbines embedded in this membrane powers the synthesis of ATP in much the same way that the flow of water through mechanized turbines generates ...

to the cytoplasm and import ADP for ATP synthesis. In contrast, chloroplasts employ an NTT protein to import ATP from the ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a previously unrecognized role of mitochondrial protein synthesis in the maintenance of intracellular iron distribution. Disruption of this process was found to ...

The human body uses three types of molecules to yield the necessary energy to drive ATP synthesis: fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Over a hundred ATP molecules are synthesized from the complete ...

This disruption inhibits ATP synthesis and other essential biosynthetic processes, ultimately causing bacterial death due to DNA and membrane damage. Importantly, this heterojunction film does not ...

Also, adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) synthesis at the expense of manganese oxidation was shown. These bacteria thus differ in two important respects from others previously isolated from ...
