    GlossaryOxidative Phosphorylation

    process producing ATP in mitochondria using electron transport chain

    Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is a process that occurs in the mitochondria of cells, where energy from nutrients is used to produce ATP, the primary energy currency of the cell. This process involves the transfer of electrons through a series of proteins known as the electron transport chain, ultimately leading to the production of ATP through the enzyme ATP synthase.
