Question:

Why and how do protons move through the thylakoid membrane from the lumen to the stroma?

Author: fahr dat



Answer:

Protons move through the thylakoid membrane from the lumen to the stroma because there is a higher concentration of protons inside the lumen than outside. They move through the ATP synthase complex releasing free energy that it used to phosphorylate ADP (chemiosmosis).
