Illustration of the proposed dual roles of the proton flux. In addition to drive the motion of the motor (time frames 1 and 2 for CCW; time frames 4–6 for CW), each passage of proton (red circle) through the cell membrane may also, with a small probability, drive the switching between CCW and CW states of the motor (time frame 3, the gray box).
