Redox-linked proton translocation by direct-coupled ligand conduction.

abstract：:The ATP synthetase of chloroplast membranes binds ADP and ATP with high affinity, and the binding becomes quasi-irreversible under certain conditions. One explanation of the function of these nucleotides is that they are transiently tightly bound during ATP synthesis as part of the catalytic process, and that the rele...
