ATP synthesis in cell requires

  • H+ gradient across the membrane

  • K+ gradient across the membrane

  • PO4 3- gradient across the membrane

  • Ca2+ gradient across the membrane


A.

H+ gradient across the membrane

ATP synthesis takes place by the process of chemiosmosis, where ATP is generated via a proton (H+) gradient across the membrane.

Actions of the proton pump is the driving force of ATP. The proton pump pumps H+ ions across the membrane. It establishes a chemical gradient; the protons are high in the intermembrane space than in the matrix. Pumping of the H+ ions across the membrane makes the intermembrane space more positively charged as compared to the matrix. Hence, this is strong electrochemical gradient which energizes the ATP synthase protein to form ATP.
