Chemiosmosis is an energy-coupling mechanism that uses energy from a hydrogen ion gradient across a membrane to drive cellular work, such as ATP synthesis.
La quimiosmosis es un mecanismo de acoplamiento energético que usa la energía de un gradiente de iones de hidrógeno a través de una membrana para realizar trabajo celular, como la síntesis de ATP.
