The thylakoid membrane bears several F0-F1 particle ATPase/ATP synthase. Which of the following is incorrect for these particles?

1. Once of its part (F0) is embedded in the membrane and forms a transmembrane channel that carries out facilitated diffusion of protons across the membrane

2. Its other part (F1) protrudes out facing towards the stroma

3. The catalytic sites for ATP formation are located in F1 part

4. F1 is intrinsic protein
