Questions and Answers

Which of the following is true about the binding change mechanism of energy coupling?

  • The irregularly shaped shaft is linked to F1 instead of Fo
  • Each β subunit is in the same stage of the catalytic cycle at any time
  • The open conformation favors ATP release (correct)
  • The rotation is driven by the flow of O2 through Fo

What is the role of the irregularly shaped shaft in the binding change mechanism of energy coupling?

  • It catalyzes the formation of ATP
  • It links Fo to F1 (correct)
  • It rotates relative to the ring of 3 α subunits
  • It is stationary and does not rotate

What drives the rotation of the irregularly shaped shaft in the binding change mechanism of energy coupling?

  • The flow of CO2 through Fo
  • The flow of O2 through Fo
  • The flow of H+ through Fo (correct)
  • The flow of glucose through Fo
