Explanation
Phosphate translocase is second transport system. It is a symporter which transfers one H+ and one H2PO4- into matrix. Adenine nucleotide translocase is first transport system. It is combined in inner mitochondrial membrane. It is a membrane protein (antiporter) which is used for carrying Pi and ADP into matrix and ATP into cytosol. Both the translocases taken together are known as ATP synthasome.
