About this document

Overview of the Electron Transport Chain by Tanya Dilshad is a document available to read on EtoBox.

1) The electron transport chain involves a series of redox reactions that pass electrons from one component to the next down the chain. This generates a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. 2) As protons diffuse back into the mitochondrial matrix through ATP synthase, their movement is used to phosphorylate ADP, producing ATP via chemiosmosis. 3) The electron transport chain contains four multi-protein complexes embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane that transmit electrons and
