Question

From which of the following does oxidative phosphorylation usually refers to?

  1. Anaerobic production of ATP
  2. Citric acid cycle production of ATP
  3. Alcoholic fermentation
  4. None of the above

hintHint:

Production of ATP by Chemiosmotic mechanism.

The correct answer is: Anaerobic production of ATP


    Oxidative phosphorylation usually refers to the citric acid cycle production of ATP .
    • Oxidative phosphorylation refers to the synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate by Chemiosmosis.
    • It occurs with the help of energy obtained from the oxidation of nutrients by enzymes during cellular respiration. 
    • Oxidative phosphorylation refers to the synthesis of ATP driven by proton motive force developed during oxidation of reducing powers such as NADH and FADH₂ through the electron transport chain.
    • The use of proton motive force is to drive transport of protons down the concentration gradient and simultaneous ADP phosphorylation represents chemiosmosis.
    • The process of oxidative phosphorylation occurs within mitochondria during respiration.
    • ATP is synthesized in the F₁ particles located on the cristae in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
    • This phosphorylation requires oxygen.
    • Phosphorylation occurs with electron transport system.
    • Chemiosmosis is the movement of ions across a selectively permeable membrane down their electrochemical gradient. More specifically, this relates to the ATP generation by the movement of hydrogen ions or a proton motive force across a membrane during cellular respiration
    Hence, it is the citric acid cycle production of ATP, which refers to the oxidative phosphorylation.
