Answer:
Someone who is in a coma is unconscious and will not respond to voices, other sounds, or any sort of activity going on nearby. The person is still alive, but the brain is functioning at its lowest stage of alertness.
A mutation in human ATPase 6 from leucine to
arginine at position 156 may allow the movements of protons across the
membrane, but not rotating of the ring of c subunits.
This possible mechanism affect the function of
ATP synthase because there would be an uncoupling of proton translocation and ATP
synthesis. ATP synthase would remain sensitive to F0 proton conduction
inhibitors
