Proton Gradient
A
proton gradient
is a
difference in proton concentration
across a membrane, which is used by cells to store energy and drive processes like
ATP synthesis
. This gradient is crucial for
cellular respiration
and photosynthesis, where it powers the
ATP synthase enzyme
to
produce ATP
from ADP and
inorganic phosphate
.
