Key Equations

$$\text{NADH} + \text{H}^+ + \tfrac{1}{2}\text{O}_2 \;\longrightarrow\; \text{NAD}^+ + \text{H}_2\text{O} \qquad \Delta G^{\circ\prime} = -218.5\;\text{kJ/mol}$$
$$\text{CoQH}_2 + 2\;\text{Cyt}\;c_{\text{ox}} \;\rightarrow\; \text{CoQ} + 2\;\text{Cyt}\;c_{\text{red}} + 2\text{H}^+_{\text{IMS}} \qquad (4\;\text{H}^+\;\text{pumped total})$$
$$\Delta G^{\circ\prime} = -nF\Delta E^{\circ\prime}$$
$$\text{NADH:}\quad \frac{10\;\text{H}^+}{4\;\text{H}^+/\text{ATP}} = 2.5\;\text{ATP per NADH}$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
