You can create a vesicle from the inner mitochondrial membranethat includes a functional ATP synthase protein with its fullyfunctional F0 rotor, central stalk, and F1 ATPase head. There isATP, ADP, and Pi (inorganic phosphate) present inside and outsideof the vesicle. You are allowed to mechanically spin the F0 rotordomain in the absence of protons. How would ATP levels changeinside the vesicle? Briefly explain how this change occurs.
