Many intermediate cytochromes and other carriers having their intermediate redox potentials are arranged in a series which transport electrons from NADH or FADH2 to O2. This sequence of electron carriers constitutes the electron transport system (ETS). The electron transport proceeds from carriers that have low redox potential to those having high redox potential. The electron transport down the energy gradient through electron transport system leads to the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. This generation of ATP is called as oxidative phosphorylation.
