Boyer had been greeted with disbelief when he theorized that the previously mysterious process is the work of a "beautiful little machine" that operates within enzymes on the molecular level.
Boyer says "one of the services of the Nobel Foundation" is to call attention to basic science so that the importance of new fields can be recognized.
But at the time he proposed it, Boyer's hypothesis was so original that a methodology to either confirm or disprove it had not been invented.

From the early 1960s through 1994, the Office of Science supported Paul D. Boyer's research at the University of California at Los Angeles on ATP synthase, the enzyme responsible for synthesizing ATP.
Boyer theorized that this "molecular machine" with rotating parts functions in a surprising way for enzymes, a mechanism later supported by the work of John E. Walker of the United Kingdom.
Among other things, Boyer discovered that energy input was not used primarily to form the ATP molecule, but rather to promote the release of an already formed and tightly bound ATP.
