Structure of the rotor of the V-Type Na+-ATPase from Enterococcus hirae.

چکیده
The membrane rotor ring from the vacuolar-type (V-type) sodium ion-pumping adenosine triphosphatase (Na+-ATPase) from Enterococcus hirae consists of 10 NtpK subunits, which are homologs of the 16-kilodalton and 8-kilodalton proteolipids found in other V-ATPases and in F1Fo- or F-ATPases, respectively. Each NtpK subunit has four transmembrane alpha helices, with a sodium ion bound between helices 2 and 4 at a site buried deeply in the membrane that includes the essential residue glutamate-139. This site is probably connected to the membrane surface by two half-channels in subunit NtpI, against which the ring rotates. Symmetry mismatch between the rotor and catalytic domains appears to be an intrinsic feature of both V- and F-ATPases.

The vacuole-type ATPases (V-ATPases) are proton pumps in various intracellular compartments of eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic V-ATPase of Enterococcus hirae, closely related to the eukaryotic enzymes, provides a unique opportunity to study ion translocation by V-ATPases because it transports Na(+) ions, which are easier to detect by x-ray crystallography and radioisotope experiments. The purifie...

In F-ATPases, ATP hydrolysis is coupled to translocation of ions through membranes by rotation of a ring of c subunits in the membrane. The ring is attached to a central shaft that penetrates the catalytic domain, which has pseudo-3-fold symmetry. The ion translocation pathway lies between the external circumference of the ring and another hydrophobic protein. The H+ or Na+:ATP ratio depends up...

The prokaryotic V-ATPase of Enterococcus hirae, closely related to the eukaryotic enzymes, provides a unique opportunity to study the ion-translocation mechanism because it transports Na(+), which can be detected by radioisotope (22Na(+)) experiments and X-ray crystallography. In this study, we demonstrated that the binding affinity of the rotor ring (K ring) for 22Na(+) decreased approximately...

A Glu139Asp mutant of the NtpK subunit (kE139D) of Enterococcus hirae vacuolar-type ATPase (V-ATPase) lost tolerance to sodium but not to lithium at pH 10. Purified kE139D V-ATPase retained relatively high specific activity and affinity for the lithium ion compared to the sodium ion. The kE139 residue of V-ATPase is indispensable for its enzymatic activity that is linked with the salt tolerance...

The crystal structures of the Na(+)- and Li(+)-bound NtpK rings of Enterococcus hirae V-ATPase have been obtained. The coupling ion (Na(+) or Li(+)) was surrounded by five oxygen atoms contributed by residues T64, Q65, Q110, E139, and L61, and the hydrogen bonds of the side chains of Q110, Y68, and T64 stabilized the position of the E139 γ carboxylate essential for ion occlusion (PDB accession ...
