The ATPase activity of chloroplast and bacterial F(1)-ATPase is strongly inhibited by both the endogenous inhibitor ε and tightly bound ADP. Although the physiological significance of these inhibitory mechanisms is not very well known for the membrane-bound F(0)F(1), these are very likely to be important in avoiding the futile ATP hydrolysis reaction and ensuring efficient ATP synthesis in vivo. In a previous study using the α(3)β(3)γ complex of F(1) obtained from the thermophilic cyanobacteria, Thermosynechococcus elongatus BP-1, we succeeded in determining the discrete stop position, ~80° forward from the pause position for ATP binding, caused by ε-induced inhibition (ε-inhibition) during γ rotation (Konno, H., Murakami-Fuse, T., Fujii, F., Koyama, F., Ueoka-Nakanishi, H., Pack, C. G., Kinjo, M., and Hisabori, T. (2006) EMBO J. 25, 4596-4604). Because γ in ADP-inhibited F(1) also pauses at the same position, ADP-induced inhibition (ADP-inhibition) was assumed to be linked to ε-inhibition. However, ADP-inhibition and ε-inhibition should be independent phenomena from each other because the ATPase core complex, α(3)β(3)γ, also lapses into the ADP-inhibition state. By way of thorough biophysical and biochemical analyses, we determined that the ε subunit inhibition mechanism does not directly correlate with ADP-inhibition. We suggest here that the cyanobacterial ATP synthase ε subunit carries out an important regulatory role in acting as an independent "braking system" for the physiologically unfavorable ATP hydrolysis reaction.  相似文献

The evidence is presented that the ADP- and Mg(2+)-dependent inactivation of MF1-ATPase during MgATP hydrolysis requires binding of ATP at two binding sites: one is catalytic and the second is noncatalytic. Binding of the noncatalytic ATP increases the rate of the inactive complex formation in the course of ATP hydrolysis. The rate of the enzyme inactivation during ATP hydrolysis depends on the medium Mg2+ concentration. High Mg2+ inhibits the steady-state activity of MF1-ATPase by increasing the rate of formation of inactive enzyme-ADP-Mg2+ complex, thereby shifting the equilibrium between active and inactive enzyme forms. The Mg2+ needed for MF1-ATPase inactivation binds from the medium independent from the MgATP binding at either catalytic or noncatalytic sites. The inhibitory ADP molecule arises at the MF1-ATPase catalytic site as a result of MgATP hydrolysis. Exposure of the native MF1-ATPase with bound ADP at a catalytic site to 1 mM Mg2+ prior to assay inactivates the enzymes with kinact 24 min-1. The maximal inactivation rate during ATP hydrolysis at saturating MgATP and Mg2+ does not exceed 10 min-1. The results show that the rate-limiting step of the MF1-ATPase inactivation during ATP hydrolysis with excess Mg2+ precedes binding of Mg2+ and likely is the rate of formation of enzyme with ADP bound at the catalytic site without bound P(i). This complex binds Mg2+ resulting in inactive MF1-ATPase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

During hydrolysis of ATP, the gamma subunit of the rotary motor protein F(1)-ATPase rotates within a ring of alpha(3)beta(3) subunits. Tentoxin is a phyto-pathogenic cyclic tetrapeptide, which influences F(1)-ATPase activity of sensitive species. At low concentrations, tentoxin inhibits ATP hydrolysis of ensembles of F(1) molecules in solution. At higher concentrations, however, ATP hydrolysis recovers. Here we have examined how tentoxin acts on individual molecules of engineered F(1)-ATPase from the thermophilic Bacillus PS3 (Groth, G., Hisabori, T., Lill, H., and Bald, D. (2002) J. Biol. Chem. 277, 20117-20119). We found that inhibition by tentoxin caused a virtually complete stop of rotation, which was partially relieved at higher tentoxin concentrations. Re-activation, however, was not simply a reversal of inhibition; while the torque appears unaffected as compared with the situation without tentoxin, F(1) under re-activating conditions was less susceptible to inhibitory ADP binding but displayed a large number of short pauses, indicating infringed energy conversion.  相似文献

F(1)-ATPase (F(1)) is an ATP-driven rotary motor wherein the γ subunit rotates against the surrounding α(3)β(3) stator ring. The 3 catalytic sites of F(1) reside on the interface of the α and β subunits of the α(3)β(3) ring. While the catalytic residues predominantly reside on the β subunit, the α subunit has 1 catalytically critical arginine, termed the arginine finger, with stereogeometric similarities with the arginine finger of G-protein-activating proteins. However, the principal role of the arginine finger of F(1) remains controversial. We studied the role of the arginine finger by analyzing the rotation of a mutant F(1) with a lysine substitution of the arginine finger. The mutant showed a 350-fold longer catalytic pause than the wild-type; this pause was further lengthened by the slowly hydrolyzed ATP analog ATPγS. On the other hand, the mutant F(1) showed highly unidirectional rotation with a coupling ratio of 3 ATPs/turn, the same as wild-type, suggesting that cooperative torque generation by the 3 β subunits was not impaired. The hybrid F(1) carrying a single copy of the α mutant revealed that the reaction step slowed by the mutation occurs at +200° from the binding angle of the mutant subunit. Thus, the principal role of the arginine finger is not to mediate cooperativity among the catalytic sites, but to enhance the rate of the ATP cleavage by stabilizing the transition state of ATP hydrolysis. Lysine substitution also caused frequent pauses because of severe ADP inhibition, and a slight decrease in ATP-binding rate.  相似文献

F(1)-ATP synthase (F(1)-ATPase) is equipped with a special mechanism that prevents the wasteful reverse reaction, ATP hydrolysis, when there is insufficient proton motive force to drive ATP synthesis. Chloroplast F(1)-ATPase is subject to redox regulation, whereby ATP hydrolysis activity is regulated by formation and reduction of the disulfide bond located on the γ subunit. To understand the molecular mechanism of this redox regulation, we constructed a chimeric F(1) complex (α(3)β(3)γ(redox)) using cyanobacterial F(1), which mimics the regulatory properties of the chloroplast F(1)-ATPase, allowing the study of its regulation at the single molecule level. The redox state of the γ subunit did not affect the ATP binding rate to the catalytic site(s) and the torque for rotation. However, the long pauses caused by ADP inhibition were frequently observed in the oxidized state. In addition, the duration of continuous rotation was relatively shorter in the oxidized α(3)β(3)γ(redox) complex. These findings lead us to conclude that redox regulation of CF(1)-ATPase is achieved by controlling the probability of ADP inhibition via the γ subunit inserted region, a sequence feature observed in both cyanobacterial and chloroplast ATPase γ subunits, which is important for ADP inhibition (Sunamura, E., Konno, H., Imashimizu-Kobayashi, M., Sugano, Y., and Hisabori, T. (2010) Plant Cell Physiol. 51, 855-865).  相似文献

H(+)-F(O)F(1)-ATP synthase couples proton flow through its membrane portion, F(O), to the synthesis of ATP in its headpiece, F(1). Upon reversal of the reaction the enzyme functions as a proton pumping ATPase. Even in the simplest bacterial enzyme the ATPase activity is regulated by several mechanisms, involving inhibition by MgADP, conformational transitions of the epsilon subunit, and activation by protonmotive force. Here we report that the Met23Lys mutation in the gamma subunit of the Rhodobacter capsulatus ATP synthase significantly impaired the activation of ATP hydrolysis by protonmotive force. The impairment in the mutant was due to faster enzyme deactivation that was particularly evident at low ATP/ADP ratio. We suggest that the electrostatic interaction of the introduced gammaLys23 with the DELSEED region of subunit beta stabilized the ADP-inhibited state of the enzyme by hindering the rotation of subunit gamma rotation which is necessary for the activation.  相似文献

In F1-ATPase, the rotation of the central axis subunit gamma relative to the surrounding alpha3beta3 subunits is coupled to ATP hydrolysis. We previously reported that the introduced regulatory region of the gamma subunit of chloroplast F1-ATPase can modulate rotation of the gamma subunit of the thermophilic bacterial F1-ATPase (Bald, D., Noji, H., Yoshida, M., Hirono-Hara, Y., and Hisabori, T. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 39505-39507). The attenuated enzyme activity of this chimeric enzyme under oxidizing conditions was characterized by frequent and long pauses of rotation of gamma. In this study, we report an inverse regulation of the gamma subunit rotation in the newly engineered F1-chimeric complex whose three negatively charged residues Glu210-Asp211-Glu212 adjacent to two cysteine residues of the regulatory region derived from chloroplast F1-ATPase gamma were deleted. ATP hydrolysis activity of the mutant complex was stimulated up to 2-fold by the formation of the disulfide bond at the regulatory region by oxidation. We successfully observed inverse redox switching of rotation of gamma using this mutant complex. The complex exhibited long and frequent pauses in its gamma rotation when reduced, but the rotation rates between pauses remained unaltered. Hence, the suppression or activation of the redox-sensitive F1-ATPase can be explained in terms of the change in the rotation behavior at a single molecule level. These results obtained by the single molecule analysis of the redox regulation provide further insights into the regulation mechanism of the rotary enzyme.  相似文献

Temperature-sensitive reaction intermediate of F1-ATPase   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
F(1)-ATPase is a rotary molecular motor that makes 120 degrees stepping rotations, with each step being driven by a single-ATP hydrolysis. In this study, a new reaction intermediate of F(1)-ATPase was discovered at a temperature below 4 degrees C, which makes a pause at the same angle in its rotation as when ATP binds. The rate constant of the intermediate reaction was strongly dependent on temperature with a Q(10) factor of 19, implying that the intermediate reaction accompanies a large conformational change. Kinetic analyses showed that the intermediate state does not correspond to ATP binding or hydrolysis. The addition of ADP to the reaction mixture did not alter the angular position of the intermediate state, but specifically lengthened the time constant of this state. Conversely, the addition of inorganic phosphate caused a pause at an angle of +80 degrees from that of the intermediate state. These observations strongly suggest that the newly found reaction intermediate is an ADP-releasing step.  相似文献

The characteristics of the binding sites for ADP and adenylyl imidodiphosphate have been studied in soluble and particulate F1-ATPase from bovine heart mitochondria. ADP, but not electrochemical gradients, removes the inhibitory effect of adenylyl imidodiphosphate on ATPase activity in coupled submitochondrial particles. In soluble F1-ATPase, methanol at 20% concentration diminishes the ability of ATP and adenylyl imidodiphosphate to inhibit ATP and ITP hydrolysis; these findings suggest that ADP and adenylyl imidodiphosphate inhibit hydrolysis by acting on the same site. Methanol at 20% stimulates the hydrolytic activity of soluble F1-ATPase, but fails to stimulate significantly the activity of the particulate enzyme, even though in particulate F1-ATPase methanol markedly diminishes the inhibiting action of added ADP and adenylyl imidodiphosphate on ATP and ITP hydrolysis. This is consistent with the idea that in the particulate system there are two inhibitory binding sites for ADP, one accessible to methanol, and another which is inaccessible to methanol; the latter is transitorily occupied by ADP arising from ATP hydrolysis. Indeed, experiments on the effect of ADP in ITP hydrolysis by submitochondrial particles show the existence of two ADP inhibitory sites.  相似文献

F(0)F(1)-ATP synthase couples ATP synthesis/hydrolysis with transmembrane proton transport. The catalytic mechanism involves rotation of the gamma epsilon c(approximately 10)-subunits complex relative to the rest of the enzyme. In the absence of protonmotive force the enzyme is inactivated by the tight binding of MgADP. Subunit epsilon also modulates the activity: its conformation can change from a contracted to extended form with C-terminus stretched towards F(1). The latter form inhibits ATP hydrolysis (but not synthesis). We propose that the directionality of the coiled-coil subunit gamma rotation determines whether subunit epsilon is in contracted or extended form. Block of rotation by MgADP presumably induces the extended conformation of subunit epsilon. This conformation might serve as a safety lock, stabilizing the ADP-inhibited state upon de-energization and preventing spontaneous re-activation and wasteful ATP hydrolysis. The hypothesis merges the known regulatory effects of ADP, protonmotive force and conformational changes of subunit epsilon into a consistent picture.  相似文献

F1-ATPase is an ATP-driven motor in which γε rotates in the α3β3-cylinder. It is attenuated by MgADP inhibition and by the ε subunit in an inhibitory form. The non-inhibitory form of ε subunit of thermophilic Bacillus PS3 F1-ATPase is stabilized by ATP-binding with micromolar Kd at 25 °C. Here, we show that at [ATP] > 2 μM, ε does not affect rotation of PS3 F1-ATPase but, at 200 nM ATP, ε prolongs the pause of rotation caused by MgADP inhibition while the frequency of the pause is unchanged. It appears that ε undergoes reversible transition to the inhibitory form at [ATP] below Kd.  相似文献

The short preincubation of submitochondrial particles with low concentrations of ADP in the presence of Mg2+ results in a complete loss of their ATPase and inosine triphosphatase activities. Other nucleoside diphosphates (IDP and GDP) do not affect the ATPase activity. The ADP-inhibited ATPase can be activated in a time-dependent manner by treatment of submitochondrial particles with the enzyme converting ADP into ATP (phosphoenolpyruvate plus pyruvate kinase). The activaton is a first-order reaction with rate constant 0.2 min-1 at 25 degrees C. The rate constant of activation is increased in the presence of ATP up to 2 min-1, and this increase shows saturation kinetics with Km value equal to that for ATPase reaction itself (10(-4) M at 25 degrees C at pH 8.0). The experimental results obtained are consistent with the model where two alternative pathways of ADP dissociation from the inhibitory site of ATPase exist; one is spontaneous dissociation and the second is ATP-dependent dissociation through the formation of the ternary complex between ADP, the enzyme and ATP. ADP-induced inactivation and ATP-dependent activation of ATPase activity of submitochondrial particles is accompanied by the same directed change of their ability to catalyse the ATP-dependent reverse electron transport from succinate to NAD+. The possible implication of the model suggested is discussed in terms of functional role of the inhibitory high-affinity binding site for ADP in the mitochondrial ATPase.  相似文献

The conformational fluctuation of enzymes has a crucial role in reaction acceleration. However, the contribution to catalysis enhancement of individual substates with conformations far from the average conformation remains unclear. We studied the catalytic power of the rotary molecular motor F(1)-ATPase from thermophilic Bacillus PS3 as it was stalled in transient conformations far from a stable pausing angle. The rate constants of ATP binding and hydrolysis were determined as functions of the rotary angle. Both rates exponentially increase with rotation, revealing the molecular basis of positive cooperativity among three catalytic sites: elementary reaction steps are accelerated via the mechanical rotation driven by other reactions on neighboring catalytic sites. The rate enhancement induced by ATP binding upon rotation was greater than that brought about by hydrolysis, suggesting that the ATP binding step contributes more to torque generation than does the hydrolysis step. Additionally, 9% of the ATP-driven rotary step was supported by thermal diffusion, suggesting that acceleration of the ATP docking process occurs via thermally agitated conformational fluctuations.  相似文献

F(1)-ATPase is a rotary molecular motor in which unidirectional rotation of the central gamma subunit is powered by ATP hydrolysis in three catalytic sites arranged 120 degrees apart around gamma. To study how hydrolysis reactions produce mechanical rotation, we observed rotation under an optical microscope to see which of the three sites bound and released a fluorescent ATP analog. Assuming that the analog mimics authentic ATP, the following scheme emerges: (i) in the ATP-waiting state, one site, dictated by the orientation of gamma, is empty, whereas the other two bind a nucleotide; (ii) ATP binding to the empty site drives an approximately 80 degrees rotation of gamma; (iii) this triggers a reaction(s), hydrolysis and/or phosphate release, but not ADP release in the site that bound ATP one step earlier; (iv) completion of this reaction induces further approximately 40 degrees rotation.  相似文献

H+-FOF1-ATP synthase couples proton flow through its membrane portion, FO, to the synthesis of ATP in its headpiece, F1. Upon reversal of the reaction the enzyme functions as a proton pumping ATPase. Even in the simplest bacterial enzyme the ATPase activity is regulated by several mechanisms, involving inhibition by MgADP, conformational transitions of the ε subunit, and activation by protonmotive force. Here we report that the Met23Lys mutation in the γ subunit of the Rhodobacter capsulatus ATP synthase significantly impaired the activation of ATP hydrolysis by protonmotive force. The impairment in the mutant was due to faster enzyme deactivation that was particularly evident at low ATP/ADP ratio. We suggest that the electrostatic interaction of the introduced γLys23 with the DELSEED region of subunit β stabilized the ADP-inhibited state of the enzyme by hindering the rotation of subunit γ rotation which is necessary for the activation.  相似文献

We have studied the kinetics of "unisite" ATP hydrolysis and synthesis in seven mutant Escherichia coli F1-ATPase enzymes. The seven mutations are distributed over a 105-residue segment of the catalytic nucleotide-binding domain in beta-subunit and are: G142S, K155Q, K155E, E181Q, E192Q, M209I, and R246C. We report forward and reverse rate constants and equilibrium constants in all seven mutant enzymes for the four steps of unisite kinetics, namely (i) ATP binding/release, (ii) ATP hydrolysis/synthesis, (iii) Pi release/binding, and (iv) ADP release/binding. The seven mutant enzymes displayed a wide range of deviations from normal in both rate and equilibrium constants, with no discernible common pattern. Notably, steep reductions in Kd ATP were seen in some cases, the value of Kd Pi was high, and K2 (ATP hydrolysis/synthesis) was relatively unaffected. Significantly, when the data from the seven mutations were combined with previous data from two other E. coli F1-beta-subunit mutations (D242N, D242V), normal E. coli F1, soluble and membranous mitochondrial F1, it was found that linear free energy relationships obtained for both ATP binding/release (log k+1 versus log K1) and ADP binding/release (log k-4 versus log K-4). Two conclusions follow. 1) The seven mutations studied here cause subtle changes in interactions between the catalytic nucleotide-binding domain and substrate ATP or product ADP. 2) The mitochondrial, normal E. coli, and nine total beta-subunit mutant enzymes represent a continuum in which subtle structural differences in the catalytic site resulted in changes in binding energy; therefore insights into the nature of energy coupling during ATP hydrolysis and synthesis by F1-ATPase may be ascertained by detailed studies of this group of enzymes.  相似文献

V1-ATPase is a rotary motor protein that rotates the central shaft in a counterclockwise direction hydrolyzing ATP. Although the ATP-binding process is suggested to be the most critical reaction step for torque generation in F1-ATPase (the closest relative of V1-ATPase evolutionarily), the role of ATP binding for V1-ATPase in torque generation has remained unclear. In the present study, we performed single-molecule manipulation experiments on V1-ATPase from Thermus thermophilus to investigate how the ATP-binding process is modulated upon rotation of the rotary shaft. When V1-ATPase showed an ATP-waiting pause, it was stalled at a target angle and then released. Based on the response of the V1-ATPase released, the ATP-binding probability was determined at individual stall angles. It was observed that the rate constant of ATP binding (kon) was exponentially accelerated with forward rotation, whereas the rate constant of ATP release (koff) was exponentially reduced. The angle dependence of the koff of V1-ATPase was significantly smaller than that of F1-ATPase, suggesting that the ATP-binding process is not the major torque-generating step in V1-ATPase. When V1-ATPase was stalled at the mean binding angle to restrict rotary Brownian motion, kon was evidently slower than that determined from free rotation, showing the reaction rate enhancement by conformational fluctuation. It was also suggested that shaft of V1-ATPase should be rotated at least 277° in a clockwise direction for efficient release of ATP under ATP-synthesis conditions.  相似文献

F(1)-ATPase is a rotary molecular motor that proceeds in 120 degrees steps, each driven by ATP hydrolysis. How the chemical reactions that occur in three catalytic sites are coupled to mechanical rotation is the central question. Here, we show by high-speed imaging of rotation in single molecules of F(1) that phosphate release drives the last 40 degrees of the 120 degrees step, and that the 40 degrees rotation accompanies reduction of the affinity for phosphate. We also show, by single-molecule imaging of a fluorescent ATP analog Cy3-ATP while F(1) is forced to rotate slowly, that release of Cy3-ADP occurs at approximately 240 degrees after it is bound as Cy3-ATP at 0 degrees . This and other results suggest that the affinity for ADP also decreases with rotation, and thus ADP release contributes part of energy for rotation. Together with previous results, the coupling scheme is now basically complete.  相似文献

F1-ATPase is the water-soluble part of ATP synthase and is an ATP-driven rotary molecular motor that rotates the rotary shaft against the surrounding stator ring, hydrolyzing ATP. Although the mechanochemical coupling mechanism of F1-ATPase has been well studied, the molecular details of individual reaction steps remain unclear. In this study, we conducted a single-molecule rotation assay of F1 from thermophilic bacteria under various pressures from 0.1 to 140 MPa. Even at 140 MPa, F1 actively rotated with regular 120° steps in a counterclockwise direction, showing high conformational stability and retention of native properties. Rotational torque was also not affected. However, high hydrostatic pressure induced a distinct intervening pause at the ATP-binding angles during continuous rotation. The pause was observed under both ATP-limiting and ATP-saturating conditions, suggesting that F1 has two pressure-sensitive reactions, one of which is evidently ATP binding. The rotation assay using a mutant F1(βE190D) suggested that the other pressure-sensitive reaction occurs at the same angle at which ATP binding occurs. The activation volumes were determined from the pressure dependence of the rate constants to be +100 Å3 and +88 Å3 for ATP binding and the other pressure-sensitive reaction, respectively. These results are discussed in relation to recent single-molecule studies of F1 and pressure-induced protein unfolding.  相似文献

1. The initial rapid phase of ATP hydrolysis by bovine heart submitochondrial particles or by soluble F1-ATPase is insensitive to anion activation (sulphite) or inhibition (azide). 2. The second slow phase of ATP hydrolysis is hyperbolically inhibited by azide (Ki approximately 10(-5) M); the inosine triphosphatase activity of submitochondrial particles or F1-ATPase is insensitive to azide or sulphite. 3. The rate of interconversion between rapid azide-insensitive and slow azide-sensitive phases of ATP hydrolysis does not depend on azide concentration, but strongly depends on ATP concentration. 4. Sulphite prevents the interconversion of the rapid initial phase of the reaction into the slower second phase, and also prevents and slowly reverses the inhibition by azide. 5. The presence of sulphite in the mixture when ADP reacts with ATPase of submitochondrial particles changes the pattern of the following activation process. 6. Azide blocks the activation of ATP-inhibited ATPase of submitochondrial particles by phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate kinase. 7. The results obtained suggest that the inhibiting effect of azide on mitochondrial ATPase is due to stabilization of inactive E*.ADP complex formed during ATP hydrolysis; the activation of ATPase by sulphite is also realized through the equilibrium between intermediate active E.ADP complex and inactive E*.ADP complex.  相似文献
