The energy for ATP synthesis is provided from proton transport along the gradient of electrochemical potential of protons across membranes (△H). When the magnitude of △H is large, as in functionalmitochondrial, downhill proton flow through F<sub>0</sub> causes rotation of the F<sub>0</sub> rotor and hence rotation of the γε-subunits of F<sub>1</sub>. The rotary motion of the γ alternates the structure of the β-subunit so the ATP is synthesized<ref>PMID: 12788493</ref>. | The energy for ATP synthesis is provided from proton transport along the gradient of electrochemical potential of protons across membranes (△H).
