Conformational changes induced by electron transferring is believed to be coupled to proton pumping (however, the actual mechanisms is yet revealed!). In actively respiring mitochondria, the measured pH is about 0.75 and difference in electrical potential () is about 0.15-0.2 V. The energy stored in such an H+ gradient can be used to synthesize ATP or to do other work. 四 、呼吸链的电子传递在线粒体内膜两侧形成质 子梯度(A proton gradient across the inner membrane of mitochondria is generated using the electron motive force )
