ATP synthase
A PROTON-TRANSPORTING TWO-SECTOR ATPASE COMPLEX THAT CATALYZES THE PHOSPHORYLATION OF ADP TO ATP DURING OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION. THE COMPLEX COMPRISES A MEMBRANE SECTOR (F0) THAT CARRIES OUT PROTON TRANSPORT AND A CYTOPLASMIC COMPARTMENT SECTOR (F1

ATP synthase is a protein that catalyzes the formation of the energy storage molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP) using adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi). It is classified under ligases as it changes ADP by the formation of P-O bond (phosphodiester bond).
