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 ...

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 ...

Using a technique called 31 PMR spectroscopy, SOMMA researchers were able to determine the rate of ATP synthesis by looking at how fast the muscle was able to synthesize ATP after it was depleted ...

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 ...

Mitochondria are critical for cellular homeostasis, regulating bioenergetics, redox balance, Ca2+ signaling, and cell death. Mitochondrial Ca2+ (Ca2+mito) plays a dual role in physiological processes ...
