Describe ATP synthase-has F0 (integral) to transport protons, and F1 to do ATP synthesis<div>-F1 is a hexamer arranged in three alpha-beta dimers, with loose ADP/Pi and tight conformations</div><div>-1 proton rotates it by 36 degrees, so it turns 120 degrees per ATP (bc 3.33 protons are needed to make an ATP)</div><div><br></div><div>-proton translocation (as H+ not H3O+) via a carboxylate causes a rotation of the F0 subunit and the central shaft</div><div><br></div><div>-conformational change in all three alpha-beta pairs promotes condensation of ADP/P into ATP</div>
What is the function of ATP translocaseBinds ATP and takes it out the cell<div>Binds ADP and Pi and transports it into the mitochondria</div>
How is oxidative phos regulated<div>-substrate (NADH, ADP, and Pi) availability</div><div>-during low oxygen and low pH, inhibitor of F1 (IF1) prevents ATP synthase from making ATP</div><div><br></div><div>-inhibiting oxidative phos leads to accumulation of NADH, which causes feedback inhibition of PFK-1 in glycolysis!</div><div><br></div>*oxidative phos can go in reverse
In photosynthetic organisms, light causes a ___________________ btwn a pair of chlorophyll moleculesCharge separation
What is the ultimate electron acceptor in photosynthesis NADP+
What is the byproduct of water oxidation Oxygen
What is the source of electrons in photophosphorylation Water
What do photopigments do in photophosphorylationAbsorb different wavelengths of light
Describe the order of the components in photosynthesisPhotosystem II —> cytochrome —> photosystem I 
Describe noncyclic photosynthesisLinear path through two systems that makes both ATP and NADPH
Describe cyclic photosynthesis Cycles through photosystem I and produces more ATP 
What is the ratio of ATP to NADPH needed by the cell3:2
What caused the great oxygenation event 2.3 billion years ago (banded iron in rock)The development of photosystem II, oxygen is released there
Describe the Q cycle in the ETC"-Complex III has two binding sites, one for QH2 (ubiquinol) and one for Q (ubiquinone)<div>-with 2 QH2 and 1 Q in the membrane, one Q and one QH2 bind in their sites</div><div>-QH2 loses 2 protons and becomes semiquinone (radical), 2 protons go into intermembrane space</div><div>-electron from semiquinone are transferred to cytochrome c</div><div>-semiquinone’s (now Q) other electron goes to the Q @ other site, making that Q a semiquinone</div><div>-Q is replaced by QH2 bc of binding preferences</div><div>-new QH2 does same thing other QH2 did, giving 2 protons to IM space, and reducing cytochrome c</div><div>-second electron now goes to semiquinone at other binding site, which can now gain 2 protons from <u>matrix</u>, and become QH2</div><div>-QH2 and Q dont match binding preferences and dissociate from complex III</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Overall: 4 protons moved into IM space, 2 reduced cytochrome c can go to complex IV now</div><div><br></div><div><img src=""paste-ff698d5fc630aa0e89676ccea6edfd2691cf7bd2.png""><br></div>"
