Question
In further experiments with your newly-discovered methanogen, you treat the cells with N, N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD). DCCD is an inhibitor of ATP synthase. Which of the following would you expect to see as a result of this treatment? the treated cells make less ATP than cells grown under normal conditions the treated cells make more ATP than cells grown under normal conditions the treated cells make the same amount of ATP as cells grown under normal conditions the treated cells fail to produce a proton gradient the treated cells fail to dissipate the proton gradient they produce glucose is not oxidizedExplanation / Answer
The treated cells fail to produce a proton gradient
The treated cells make less ATP than cells grown under normal conditions
