La théorie chimiosmotique intervient dans toutes les étapes du métabolisme, depuis le transfert d'électrons jusqu'à la synthèse d'ATP. Dans les mitochondries et les bactéries, ces processus constituent la phosphorylation oxydative; dans les chloroplastes et les bactéries photosynthétiques ils constituent la phosphorylation photosynthétique ou photo-phosphorylation. 1, record 2, French, - phosphorylation%20photosynth%C3%A9tique
