This is called chemiosmotic potential.

In the open conformation, ATP is released.7/12/15&6&The subunit highlighted in yellow is in the tense conformation because of its interaction with the central γ-subunit. ATP is synthesized. With rotation of the γ- subunit 120 degrees clockwise, the subunit highlighted in yellow is open, a conformation that allows ATP release. ATP is released, allowing another ADP and Pi to bind.
