Alkaliphilic appear to produce ATP based on the H-based chemiosmotic theory. However, the bulk-based chemiosmotic theory cannot explain the ATP production in alkaliphilic bacteria because the H concentration required for driving ATP synthesis through the ATPase does not occur under the alkaline conditions. Alkaliphilic bacteria produce ATP in an H-diluted environment by retaining scarce H extruded by the respiratory chain on the outer surface of the membrane and increasing the potential of the H for ATP production on the outer surface of the membrane using specific mechanisms of ATP production.

Main channel structure responsible for substrate selectivity was estimated to understand the relationship between the evolutionary direction of catalases from and which survive in cold and high concentration of hydrogen peroxide, and their catalytic property. .
