Definitely not, as ATP synthase is a membrane-bound enzyme. It is integrated into the inner mitochondrial membrane (and the thylakoid membrane in chloroplasts).
H plus ions move through channels of the ATP synthase in the inner membrane. It is a type of enzyme that allows protons to move through the mitochondrial membrane.
Yes, ATP synthase is a protein.
Yes, ATP synthase is an integral protein.
Yes, ATP synthase is an enzyme that plays a key role in the production of ATP in cells.
ATP synthase makes ATP during oxidative phosphorylation, which occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Protons flowing through ATP synthase drive the synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. This process is the final step in cellular respiration and is essential for the production of ATP, the cell's primary energy source.

ATP Synthase
Yes, only then can the protons in the intermembrane space move through the ATP synthase into the matrix by diffusion, and as they move through ATP synthase, the enzyme c an harness the available energy thus allowing the phosphorylation of ATP
Yes, ATP synthase is a protein.
ATP synthase catalyzes the addition of a phosphate group to an ADP molecule. ADP + ATP synthase + P --> ATP + ATP synthase (ATP synthase on both sides of the equation indicates that, as an enzyme, it is not used up in the reaction.)
Yes, ATP synthase is an integral protein.
Yes, ATP synthase is an enzyme that plays a key role in the production of ATP in cells.
The catalytic knobs of ATP synthase would be located on the stromal side of the membrane. Protons travel through ATP synthase from the thylakoid space to the stroma.
ATP Synthase
At least 10 protons pass through ATP synthase in order to make a molecule of ATP.
They both use ATP synthase proteins in ATP production
ATPase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate, releasing energy in the process. ATP synthase is an enzyme that uses the energy released from a proton gradient to catalyze the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. In essence, ATPase breaks down ATP, while ATP synthase synthesizes ATP.
