	Animation Movies of ATP Synthase- (cool site!) these are cool animations of the the F0 and F1 subunits of the ATP synthase at the University of California, Berkeley.

	ATP Mechanisms Revealed is a short article, which talks about the ATP synthase at Genentech, Inc (4/8/99).

Cool Animations of the ATP Synthase By Hongyun Wang and George Oster, University of California, Berkeley

This is an experimental mirror of the Berkeley site. The images are done in gifs rather than mpegs or quicktime movies. The advantage of gifs is that they are cross-compatible with a variety of graphic browsers. It will be updated in the future to include more animations.
