What is Electron Transport and ATP Synthesis about?
The electron transport chain is a series of protein complexes located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. It transfers electrons from electron carriers NADH and FADH2 through redox reactions along a series of complexes. This movement of electrons is coupled to the pumping of hydrogen ions from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space, creating an electrochemical gradient. Later, ATP synthase uses this gradient to synthesize ATP through chemiosmosis, the process known as oxidative phosphorylation
