From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm creating an inhibitor section for the electron transport chain.

Inhibitors

[edit]

Cyanide Rotenone

The reactions catalyzed by Complex I and Complex III work roughly at equilibrium. This means that these reactions are readily reversible, by increasing the concentration of the products relative to the concentration of the reactants (for example, by increasing the proton gradient). ATP synthase is also readily reversible. Thus ATP can be used to build a proton gradient, which in turn can be used to make NADH. This process of reverse electron transport is important in many prokaryotic electron transport chains.[11]


I'm adding a section on inhibitors including Cyanide, ro are there anymore? Jparcoeur (talk) 16:20, 19 October 2017 (UTC)
