Mechanism of the F(1)F(0)-type ATP synthase, a biological rotary motor.
The F(1)F(0)-type ATP synthase is a key enzyme in cellular energy interconversion. During ATP synthesis, this large protein complex uses a proton gradient and the associated membrane potential to synthesize ATP. It can also reverse and hydrolyze ATP to generate a proton gradient. The structure of this enzyme in different functional forms is now being rapidly elucidated. The emerging consensus i...
متن کاملATP synthesis by F-type ATP synthase is obligatorily dependent on the transmembrane voltage.
ATP synthase is the universal enzyme that manufactures cellular ATP using the energy stored in a transmembrane ion gradient. This energy gradient has two components: the concentration difference (DeltapH or DeltapNa(+)) and the electrical potential difference DeltaPsi, which are thermodynamically equivalent. However, they are not kinetically equivalent, as the mitochondrial and bacterial ATP sy...
متن کاملStructure of a central stalk subunit F of prokaryotic V-type ATPase/synthase from Thermus thermophilus.
The crystal structure of subunit F of vacuole-type ATPase/synthase (prokaryotic V-ATPase) was determined to of 2.2 A resolution. The subunit reveals unexpected structural similarity to the response regulator proteins that include the Escherichia coli chemotaxis response regulator CheY. The structure was successfully placed into the low-resolution EM structure of the prokaryotic holo-V-ATPase at...
متن کاملRate acceleration of ATP hydrolysis by F(1)F(o)-ATP synthase.
The rate acceleration of ATP hydrolysis by F(1)F(o)-ATP synthase is of the order of 10(11)-fold. We present a cyclic enzyme mechanism for the reaction, relate it to known F(1) X-ray structure and speculate on the linkage between enzyme reaction intermediates and subunit rotation. Next, we describe five factors known to be important in the Escherichia coli enzyme for the rate acceleration. First...
متن کاملDetecting uber-operons in prokaryotic genomes
We present a study on computational identification of uber-operons in a prokaryotic genome, each of which represents a group of operons that are evolutionarily or functionally associated through operons in other (reference) genomes. Uber-operons represent a rich set of footprints of operon evolution, whose full utilization could lead to new and more powerful tools for elucidation of biological ...
