It’s all about ATP
How do you get it?
PMF
ATP synthesisusing the PMFis ancient
Cytosolic enzymes convert glucose to pyruvate
The ante is 2 ATP but you get 4 if you win
Plus reducing power (that’s where it’s at)
(and we’re not even in the mitochondrion yet)
In the cytosol
Still in the cytosol
OK, back to the mitochondrion
porin
Cardiolipin,76% protein

Down to water
Now, drive ATP with the PMF
