Proton acceptor

... organisms. Aerobic refers to glycolysis in the presence of an electron acceptor and anaerobic refers to glycolysis without an electron acceptor. ... use of the reduced state of these molecules to fuel the production of a proton gradient. During this process NADH and FADH2 donate electrons to ETC ...
