Cloning and functional expression of a gene encoding a vacuolar-type proton-translocating pyrophosphatase from Trypanosoma cruzi.
Acidocalcisomes are acidic Ca(2+)-storage organelles found in trypanosomatids that are similar to organelles known historically as volutin granules. Acidification of these organelles is driven in part by a vacuolar H(+)-pyrophosphatase (V-H(+)-PPase), an enzyme that is also present in plant vacuoles and in some bacteria. Here, we report the cloning and sequencing of a gene encoding the acidocal...
متن کاملFluoride inhibition of proton-translocating ATPases of oral bacteria.
The ATPases of isolated membranes of lactic acid bacteria were found to be inhibited by fluoride in a complex manner. Among the enzymes tested, that of Streptococcus mutans GS-5 was the most sensitive to fluoride, and the initial rate of hydrolysis of ATP was reduced 50% by approximately 3 mM fluoride. The enzyme of Lactobacillus casei ATCC 4646 was the most resistant, and about 25 mM fluoride ...
متن کاملA 12-cistron Escherichia coli operon (hyf) encoding a putative proton-translocating formate hydrogenlyase system.
The nucleotide sequence has been determined for a twelve-gene operon of Escherichia coli designated the hyf operon (hyfABCDEFGHIR-focB). The hyf operon is located at 55.8-56.0 min and encodes a putative nine-subunit hydrogenase complex (hydrogenase four or Hyf), a potential formate- and sigma 54-dependent transcriptional activator, HyfR (related to FhlA), and a possible formate transporter, Foc...
متن کاملStructural organization of the yeast vacuolar H+-ATPase The yeast vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase
The yeast vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase (VATPase) is structurally very similar to the V-ATPases of other fungi, plants and animals (for reviews, see Stevens and Forgac, 1997; Forgac, 1999; Nelson and Harvey, 1999). In all these systems, the V-ATPase is composed of a complex of peripheral membrane proteins containing the ATP binding sites attached to a complex of integral membrane protein...
متن کاملInfluence of genes encoding proton-translocating enzymes on suppression of Salmonella typhimurium growth and colonization.
Twenty-four-hour-old, aerobically grown, Luria-Bertani broth cultures of Salmonella typhimurium F98 suppressed the growth of a spectinomycin-resistant (Spcr) derivative of the same strain inoculated at 10(3) CFU ml(-1). This growth suppression is genus specific and RpoS independent, and it is not solely a result of nutrient depletion (P. A. Barrow, M. A. Lovell, and L. Zhang-Barber, J. Bacterio...
