Abstract
The problem of whether the rate of ATP synthesis is proportional to the magnitude of the protonmotive force has been studied in submitochondrial particles. It was found that the rate of ATP synthesis can decrease at constant protonmotive force and is more closely related to the rate of substrate oxidation.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
