Thermogenesis is the process of heat production in organisms. Make others do a double-take with a dose of educational scientific fun with any of these gifts featuring "Thermogenesis In Brown Adipose Tissue". Specifically in this process substances such as free fatty acids (derived from triacylglycerols) remove purine (ADP GDP and others) inhibition of thermogenin (uncoupling protein-1) which causes an influx of H+ into the matrix of the mitochondria and bypasses the ATP synthase channel. This uncouples oxidative phosphorylation and the energy from the proton motive force is dissipated as heat rather than producing ATP from ADP which would store chemical energy for the body's use. Make others do a double-take with energetic biological attitude today! myBiochemistry
