Outline the chemiosmotic hypothesis for the mechanism by which oxidative phosphorylation is coupled with electron transport. How does uncoupling occur in tissues with uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1)? Under what circumstances would uncoupling be disadvantageous, and under what circumstances might it be advantageous?
DCCD (diocyclohexylcarbodiimide) inhibits oxidative phosphorylation when the substrate is mitochondrial NADH. DCCD is a drug that binds to ATP synthase and blocks proton transport through the ion channel. a) Explain what the consequences of DCCD on cellular energy production are. b) Suggest at least one other cellular effect of DCCD and explain this effect.

Select the correct answer : Which of the following statements best describes the chemiosmotic theory of ATP synthesis by the electron transport system? A) As the protons pass through the system, electrons are moved from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space and ATP is formed as the electrons move back to the matrix through only one phosphorylation site. B) As the electrons pass through the system, ATP is synthesized at three different phosphorylation sites. C) As the electrons pass through the system, protons are moved from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space and ATP is formed as the protons ;move back to the matrix through the three different phosphorylation sites. D) As the electrons pass through the system protons are moved from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space and ATP is formed as the protons move back to the matrix through only one phosphorylation site.

Biochemists spent decades looking for a "high energy intermediate" that linked the production of reducing equivalents from glycolysis and the TCA cycle to the production of ATP. They were unsuccessful until Peter Mitchell put aside that search and proposed a different mechanism known as the chemiosmotic theory. Describe the chemiosmotic theory as well as the experiment that proved it was correct.
Would you expect ATP to inhibit or stimulate activity of this enzyme in the glycolysis pathway? Why? What is the immediate energy source that drives ATP synthesis by ATP Synthase during oxidative phosphorylation? Where is CO2 produced in aerobic cell respiration? What would happen to chemiosmosis if the pH in the inner membrane space was decreased (lower)? What would happen if there was an absence of O2 in the electron transport chain?

Match the following steps of oxidative phosphorylation in increasing order from beginning (1) to end (4) Electrons are transferred to molecules in the beginning of the electron transport chain H+ ions are pumped across the mitochondrial membrane to establish an electrochemical gradient. Electrons are transferred to oxygen, causing it to split and take up H+ ions, which forms water H+ ions flow down the gradient to generate ATP
