Abstract
Two possible mechanisms for oxidative phosphorylation are suggested, based on participation of quinones in the process. Both of them postulate the 1–4 addition of inorganic phosphate on a reactive quinone isomer (the quinone-methide II) without exchange of the quinone oxygen atoms. They also account for the P1-18OH2 exchange observed during oxidative phosphorylation.
