This dissipates proton gradient without passing through ATP synthesis. *Electron transport and oxygen consumption continue but ATP synthesis decreases *Thus, energy from oxidation is released as heat instead of ATP leading to thermogenesis. 2_4_-_dinitrophenol_uncoupler_leads_to_thermogenesis.txt Last modified: 2025/12/30 06:34by admin
