|
Structure and Function-The portion of the ATP Synthase that actually rotates to ‘build’ the ATP molecule is the ____ Subunit.
|
|
F0
|
|
|
F1
|
|
|
F2
|
|
|
F0 and F1 both rotate.
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In ATP synthesis, one may assume that energy is transferred to and from transport by rotation of the subunit, which drives conformational changes in the catalytic subunits.
Detailed explanation-2: -ATP synthase consists of two well defined protein entities: the F1 sector, a soluble portion situated in the mitochondrial matrix, and the Fo sector, bound to the inner mitochondrial membrane. F1 is composed of three copies of each of subunits and , and one each of subunits ,
