| Abstract: | ATP synthesis assisted by the F1F0-ATP synthase enzyme is considered in the context of chemical thermodynamics. It is shown that the proton gradient itself has no energy. For this reason, ATP synthesis with the participation of protons’ gradient has no privileges in comparison with direct ATP synthesis. |
