Figure 20.25<br />

A model of the F 1 <strong>and</strong> F 0 components of the ATP synthase, a rotating molecular motor.<br />

The <strong>and</strong> subunits constitute the stator of the motor, <strong>and</strong> the c, ,<br />

<strong>and</strong> subunits form the rotor. Flow of protons through the structure turns the rotor <strong>and</strong><br />

drives the cycle of conformational changes in <strong>and</strong> that synthesize ATP.
