Resolving stepping rotation in Thermus thermophilus H+-ATPase/synthase with an essentially drag-free probe
Vacuole-type ATPases (V(o)V₁) and F(o)F₁ ATP synthases couple ATP hydrolysis/synthesis in the soluble V(1) or F₁ portion with proton (or Na(+)) flow in the membrane-embedded V(o) or F(o) portion through rotation of one common shaft. Here we show at submillisecond resolutions the ATP-driven rotation of isolated V₁ and the whole V(o)V₁ from Thermus thermophilus, by attaching a 40-nm gold bead for...
متن کاملRotation of the proteolipid ring in the V-ATPase.
V0V1-ATPase is a proton-translocating ATPase responsible for acidification of eukaryotic intracellular compartments and for ATP synthesis in archaea and some eubacteria. We demonstrated recently the rotation of the central stalk subunits in V1, a catalytic sector of V0V1-ATPase (Imamura, H., Nakano, M., Noji, H., Muneyuki, E., Ohkuma, S., Yoshida, M., and Yokoyama, K. (2003) Proc. Natl. Acad. S...
متن کاملDiscovery of a Small-Molecule Probe for V-ATPase Function
Lysosomes perform a critical cellular function as a site of degradation for diverse cargoes including proteins, organelles, and pathogens delivered through distinct pathways, and defects in lysosomal function have been implicated in a number of diseases. Recent studies have elucidated roles for the lysosome in the regulation of protein synthesis, metabolism, membrane integrity, and other proces...
متن کاملStepping rotation of F1-ATPase visualized through angle-resolved single-fluorophore imaging.
Orientation dependence of single-fluorophore intensity was exploited in order to videotape conformational changes in a protein machine in real time. The fluorophore Cy3 attached to the central subunit of F(1)-ATPase revealed that the subunit rotates in the molecule in discrete 120 degrees steps and that each step is driven by the hydrolysis of one ATP molecule. These results, unlike those from ...
متن کاملResolving the food security problem with an interdisciplinary approach
Food is one of the basic human needsand providing it is directly related to food security. The concept of food security in its historical process has been debated from various aspects of physical and economical access to healthy and nutritious food at all times. Food insecurity is considered a complex policy problem with different aspects. This problem requires a network of communication among ...
