Chapter 19, Problem 26P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structural characteristic of mitochondria that relates to the thylakoid membranes should be determined.

Concept introduction:

A thylakoid is a membrane-bound section that is present inside the chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. These are the region of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. These thylakoids are composed of a thylakoid membrane that surrounds a thylakoid lumen.

Fo-F1 ATPase. The energy for ATP synthesis from ADP and Pi is provided by the downhill transport of protons through the rotary FoF1 ATP synthase . The enzyme has 3 alpha-beta and 12 ‘c’ subunits. The mitochondrion maintains change in membrane potential=180 mV (negative inside), pHin = 8, pHout=7, [Pi] = 3 mM and ADP is present as well. . What [ATP]/[ADP] ratio will be established at steady-state under these conditions?  What would be the [ATP]/[ADP] ratio if the enzyme had only 9 ‘c’ subunits? full revolution of the crank (gamma subunit) produces 3 ATP.
Fo-F1 ATPase. The energy for ATP synthesis from ADP and Pi is provided by the downhill transport of protons through the rotary FoF1 ATP synthase (lecture 22).   The enzyme has 3 a-b and 12 ‘c’ subunits. The mitochondrion maintains Df=180 mV (negative inside), pHin = 8, pHout=7, [Pi] = 3 mM and ADP is present as well. How much energy is available (from the proton electrochemical gradient) for ATP synthesis under these conditions (in kJ/mol)?                                                                                                                  What [ATP]/[ADP] ratio will be established at steady-state under these conditions?                                                                                                                                                What would be the [ATP]/[ADP] ratio if the enzyme had only 9 ‘c’ subunits? Remember that full revolution of the crank (gamma subunit) produces 3 ATP.
nerve impulses. Neurotransmitters are packaged by the cell into small, membrane- bound sacs called vesicles. Upon receiving a chemical signal, the vesicles move towards the cell membrane and fuse with it, releasing the enclosed neurotransmitters from the terminal end of the nerve cell. Which organelle is most likely responsible for packaging neurotransmitters into a vesicle? Mitochondria Golgi body Ribosomes Nucleus
