Dynamic mechanisms driving conformational conversions of the ? and ? subunits involved in rotational catalysis of F1-ATPase.


ABSTRACT: F-type ATPase is a ubiquitous molecular motor. Investigations on thermophilic F1-ATPase and its subunits, ? and ?, by NMR were reviewed. Using specific isotope labeling, pKa of the putative catalytic carboxylate in ? was estimated. Segmental isotope-labeling enabled us to monitor most residues of ?, revealing that the conformational conversion from open to closed form of ? on nucleotide binding found in ATPase was an intrinsic property of ? and could work as a driving force of the rotational catalysis. A stepwise conformational change was driven by switching of the hydrogen bond networks involving Walker A and B motifs. Segmentally labeled ATPase provided a well resolved NMR spectra, revealing while the open form of ? was identical for ? monomer and ATPase, its closed form could be different. ATP-binding was also a critical factor in the conformational conversion of ?, an ATP hydrolysis inhibitor. Its structural elucidation was described.
