Question

Mention the number of protons that are passed through complex V for the synthesis of 2 ATP molecules?​

Answer 1

answer for this question is 3.33 no. of protons passed through the complex v for the synthesis of 2 ATP molecules

Answer 2

ATP synthesis

Explanation:

• ATP synthase or complex V probably requires3 protons to synthesize 1 ATP.
• On the other hand, the experimental value for the number of protons required to drive the synthesis of one ATP molecule is approximately 4 because it needs to be considered the transport of ATP, ADP, and inorganic phosphate across the mitochondrial membrane that is essential to drive the proton gradient.
• Hence, in order to produce 2 ATP molecules, 20 protons are pumped out, and 8 protons must flow in to produce 2 ATP.
