TRANSPORT
CHAIN
OXYDATIVE
PHOSPHORYLATION
-large amount of ATP produced through
electron transport chain and chemiosmosis

Chemiosmosis - the transfer of ions from

higher electric gradient down to lower
electric gradient via a semipermeable
membrane.
1. The oxidative processes such as the TCA
cycle and the β-oxidation of fatty acids
From NAD+  NADH + H+
produce
FAD  FADH2

NADH and
FADH2

chain

Leads to

Electron flow

Coupled with

Transport of protons

from
From the Matrix to
the intermembrane
space
creatin

An electrical and a
pH gradient
 across
The inner
mitochondrial
membrane
allowing
Protons to reenter
the mitochondrial
matrix
by

Passing thorugh Fo channel in

the ATP synthase complex
(Complex V)

Resulting
in
Conformational changes in the
F1 domain of ATP synthase that
allow the synthesis of ATP from
ADP + Pi

-> PRODUCES 32 - 34 ATP
