Question
Chapter 18, Problem 51P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
F1 subunit isolated from ATP synthase functions as an ATP hydrolase.
Concept introduction:
ATP synthase is an enzyme which is catalyzes the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is mostly known as the energy currency of the cells for all organisms. ATP synthases catalyzes the conversion of ADP and Pi to ATP.
