Oligomycin, an antibiotic, acts by binding ATP synthase and
blocking the proton channel. What would be expected to happen to
the H+ gradient with the introduction of oligomyciin? Select one:
A. H+ would begin to flow from the intermembrane space into the
matrix back through the proton pump complexes of the ETC. B. H+
would stop being pumped from the matrix into the intermembrane
space. C.The buildup of H+ in the intermembrane space would
eventually overcome oligomycin and ATP would continue to be
generated. D.The H+ gradient would be unaffected.
