Oxysomes or ${\mathrm{F}}_0-{\mathrm{F}}_1$ particles are present on the inner mitochondrial membrane. The ${\mathrm{F}}_1$ headpiece of oxysome functions as ATP-synthetase which synthesises ATP from ADP and ip (inorganic phosphate) using energy from proton gradient or ATP synthetase becomes active in ATP formation only when there is a proton gradient having high concentration of protons on ${\mathrm{F}}_0$ side (base) as compared to $F_1$ side (head piece) of $F_0-F_1$ particles or oxysomes.
