Scientists working in the field of cellular respiration describe an experiment in which they trapped a single ATP synthase in a segment of mitochondrial membrane. They then demonstrated that they could apply mechanical force to the molecule and cause rotation of its F1FO domain. Upon rotation of this domain, ATP is produced without the need for a proton gradient. The researchers have submitteda manuscript detailing their findings to a prestigious scientific journal for publication. Is this discovery significant enough that this manuscript should be considered for publication in one of the nationҀ™s best journals? Explain.
