Missense mutations affecting Asp-161 and Ser-163 in the delta subunit of F1F0 ATP synthase have been generated. Although most substitutions allowed substantial enzyme function, the delta Asp-161-->Pro substitution resulted in a loss of enzyme activity. The loss of activity was attributable to a structural failure altering assembly of the enzyme complex. 相似文献

F0 portion of Escherichia coli ATP synthase: orientation of subunit c in the membrane 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Incubation of right-side-out oriented membrane vesicles of Escherichia coli with tetranitromethane resulted in the nitration of tyrosine residues (Tyr-10 and Tyr-73) of subunit c from the ATP synthase. Cleavage of the protein with cyanogen bromide and separation of the resulting fragments, especially of the tyrosine-containing peptides, clearly demonstrated that the distribution of the nitro groups is similar at any time and at any pH value chosen for the analysis. Furthermore, the percentage of 3-nitrotyrosine present in the two peptide fragments was in good agreement with that obtained for the intact polypeptide chain. While the modification of the tyrosine residues in subunit c with the lipophilic tetranitromethane is independent of the orientation of the membrane vesicles, the subsequent partial conversion of the 3-nitrotyrosine to the amino form only occurred when membrane vesicles with right-side-out orientation were treated with the ionic, water-soluble sodium dithionite, which at certain concentrations cannot penetrate biological membranes. Cleavage of subunit c isolated from nitrated and subsequently reduced membrane vesicles and separation of the resulting fragments by high-pressure liquid chromatography showed that the 3-nitrotyrosine in the Tyr-73-containing peptides has been completely reduced, while the nitro group in peptides containing Tyr-10 remained nearly unaffected. 相似文献

Recombinant membrane proteins in Escherichia coli are either expressed at relatively low level in the cytoplasmic membrane or they accumulate as inclusion bodies. Here, we report that the abundant over-production of subunit b of E. coli F(1)F(o) ATP synthase in the mutant host strains E. coli C41(DE3) and C43(DE3) is accompanied by the proliferation of intracellular membranes without formation of inclusion bodies. Maximal levels of proliferation of intracellular membranes were observed in C43(DE3) cells over-producing subunit b. The new proliferated membranes contained all the over-expressed protein and could be recovered by a single centrifugation step. Recombinant subunit b represented up to 80% of the protein content of the membranes. The lipid:protein ratios and phospholipid compositions of the intracellular membranes differ from those of bacterial cytoplasmic membranes, and they are particularly rich in cardiolipin. 相似文献

The structure of the N-terminal transmembrane domain (residues 1-34) of subunit b of the Escherichia coli F0F1-ATP synthase has been solved by two-dimensional 1H NMR in a membrane mimetic solvent mixture of chloroform/methanol/H2O (4:4:1). Residues 4-22 form an alpha-helix, which is likely to span the hydrophobic domain of the lipid bilayer to anchor the largely hydrophilic subunit b in the membrane. The helical structure is interrupted by a rigid bend in the region of residues 23-26 with alpha-helical structure resuming at Pro-27 at an angle offset by 20 degrees from the transmembrane helix. In native subunit b, the hinge region and C-terminal alpha-helical segment would connect the transmembrane helix to the cytoplasmic domain. The transmembrane domains of the two subunit b in F0 were shown to be close to each other by cross-linking experiments in which single Cys were substituted for residues 2-21 of the native subunit and b-b dimer formation tested after oxidation with Cu(II)(phenanthroline)2. Cys residues that formed disulfide cross-links were found with a periodicity indicative of one face of an alpha-helix, over the span of residues 2-18, where Cys at positions 2, 6, and 10 formed dimers in highest yield. A model for the dimer is presented based upon the NMR structure and distance constraints from the cross-linking data. The transmembrane alpha-helices are positioned at a 23 degrees angle to each other with the side chains of Thr-6, Gln-10, Phe-14, and Phe-17 at the interface between subunits. The change in direction of helical packing at the hinge region may be important in the functional interaction of the cytoplasmic domains. 相似文献

The first low resolution solution structure of the soluble domain of subunit b (b
22–156) of the Escherichia coli F1FO ATPsynthase was determined from small-angle X-ray scattering data. The dimeric protein has a boomerang-like shape with a
total length of 16.2 ± 0.3 nm. Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) shows that the protein binds effectively to the
subunit δ, confirming their described neighborhood. Using the recombinant C-terminal domain (δ91–177) of subunit δ and the C-terminal peptides of subunit b, b
120–140 and b
140–156, FCS titration experiments were performed to assign the segments involved in δ–b assembly. These data identify the very C-terminal tail b
140–156 to interact with δ91–177. The novel 3D structure of this peptide has been determined by NMR spectroscopy. The molecule adopts a stable helix formation
in solution with a flexible tail between amino acid 140 to 145. 相似文献

Subunit c of the membrane-integrated, proton-translocating F0 portion of the ATP synthase (F1F0) from Escherichia coli has been isolated under nondenaturing conditions (Schneider, E., and Altendorf, K. (1985) EMBO J. 4, 515-518) and antibodies have been raised in rabbits. The primary antisera did not recognize the antigen when present in the same buffer as used for the immunization. Surprisingly, in one of the three antisera a strong antibody binding was observed when intact F0, a.c complex or reconstituted subunit c was provided as the antigen. Incorporation of subunit c into liposomes together with subunits a and b forming an active, H+-translocating complex was not required for the recognition by the antiserum. Subunit c prepared by chloroform/methanol extraction or by chromatography in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate was not recognized by the anti-c antiserum when incorporated into liposomes. 相似文献

The a subunit is a membrane component of the F1F0-ATP synthase from Escherichia coli. Regions of a which appear important for membrane insertion or F0 assembly have been identified by analysis of both deletion mutants and fusion proteins which link the mutant a subunits to alkaline phosphatase. This analysis suggests the hydrophilic, amino-terminal domain of a is required for proper membrane targeting and/or insertion of the nascent polypeptide. In addition, the subcellular fractionation of four different a subunit-beta-galactosidase fusion proteins suggests this domain is localized to the periplasm, in agreement with a proposed topological model of the protein (Lewis, M.J., Chang, J.A., and Simoni, R.D. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 10541-10550). Deletions within the next three putative loops of a appear to have no significant effect on membrane targeting or insertion. Rather, they seem to interfere with the subsequent assembly of a functional enzyme. 相似文献

A complex of gamma, epsilon, and c subunits rotates in ATP synthase (FoF(1)) coupled with proton transport. A gold bead connected to the gamma subunit of the Escherichia coli F(1) sector exhibited stochastic rotation, confirming a previous study (Nakanishi-Matsui, M., Kashiwagi, S., Hosokawa, H., Cipriano, D. J., Dunn, S. D., Wada, Y., and Futai, M. (2006) J. Biol. Chem. 281, 4126-4131). A similar approach was taken for mutations in the beta subunit key region; consistent with its bulk phase ATPase activities, F(1) with the Ser-174 to Phe substitution (betaS174F) exhibited a slower single revolution time (time required for 360 degree revolution) and paused almost 10 times longer than the wild type at one of the three 120 degrees positions during the stepped revolution. The pause positions were probably not at the "ATP waiting" dwell but at the "ATP hydrolysis/product release" dwell, since the ATP concentration used for the assay was approximately 30-fold higher than the K(m) value for ATP. A betaGly-149 to Ala substitution in the phosphate binding P-loop suppressed the defect of betaS174F. The revertant (betaG149A/betaS174F) exhibited similar rotation to the wild type, except that it showed long pauses less frequently. Essentially the same results were obtained with the Ser-174 to Leu substitution and the corresponding revertant betaG149A/betaS174L. These results indicate that the domain between beta-sheet 4 (betaSer-174) and P-loop (betaGly-149) is important to drive rotation. 相似文献

Escherichia coli inner membrane proteins (IMPs) use different pathways for targeting and membrane integration. We have examined the biogenesis of the F1F0 ATP synthase subunit c, a small double spanning IMP, using complementary in vivo and in vitro approaches. The data suggest that F0c is targeted by the SRP to the membrane, where it inserts at YidC in a Sec-independent mechanism. F0c appears to be the first natural substrate of this novel pathway. 相似文献

The beta subunit of the Escherichia coli ATP synthase exhibits a tight membrane binding property 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have developed a chromatographic procedure to analyze the association of the subunits of the Escherichia coli F1Fo-ATP synthase with the cytoplasmic membrane. Minicells containing [35S]-labeled ATP synthase subunits are treated with lysozyme, solubilized, and chromatographed on a Sepharose CL-2B column in buffer containing urea and taurodeoxycholate. ATP synthase subunits are resolved into membrane intrinsic and membrane extrinsic subunits. Interestingly, a significant amount (36%) of the F1 subunit beta fractionates with the membrane intrinsic Fo subunits. About half of this amount (19%) of beta is non-specifically bound to the membrane. Interaction of beta with the membrane is not mediated by the amino terminal portion of beta. 相似文献

The topology of subunit i, a component of the yeast F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase, was determined by the use of cysteine-substituted mutants. The N(in)-C(out) orientation of this intrinsic subunit was confirmed by chemical modification of unique cysteine residues with 4-acetamido-4'-maleimidylstilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid. Near-neighbor relationships between subunit i and subunits 6, f, g, and d were demonstrated by cross-link formation following sulfhydryl oxidation or reaction with homobifunctional and heterobifunctional reagents. Our data suggest interactions between the unique membrane-spanning segment of subunit i and the first transmembranous alpha-helix of subunit 6 and a stoichiometry of 1 subunit i per complex. Cross-linked products between mutant subunits i and proteins loosely bound to the F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase suggest that subunit i is located at the periphery of the enzyme and interacts with proteins of the inner mitochondrial membrane that are not involved in the structure of the yeast ATP synthase. 相似文献

In this review we discuss recent work from our laboratory concerning the structure and/or function of the F(0) subunits of the proton-translocating ATP synthase of Escherichia coli. For the topology of subunit a a brief discussion gives (i) a detailed picture of the C-terminal two-thirds of the protein with four transmembrane helices and the C terminus exposed to the cytoplasm and (ii) an evaluation of the controversial results obtained for the localization of the N-terminal region of subunit a including its consequences on the number of transmembrane helices. The structure of membrane-bound subunit b has been determined by circular dichroism spectroscopy to be at least 75% alpha-helical. For this purpose a method was developed, which allows the determination of the structure composition of membrane proteins in proteoliposomes. Subunit b was purified to homogeneity by preparative SDS gel electrophoresis, precipitated with acetone, and redissolved in cholate-containing buffer, thereby retaining its native conformation as shown by functional coreconstitution with an ac subcomplex. Monoclonal antibodies, which have their epitopes located within the hydrophilic loop region of subunit c, and the F(1) part are bound simultaneously to the F(0) complex without an effect on the function of F(0), indicating that not all c subunits are involved in F(1) interaction. Consequences on the coupling mechanism between ATP synthesis/hydrolysis and proton translocation are discussed. 相似文献

Interactions between subunit a and oligomeric subunit c are essential for the coupling of proton translocation to rotary motion in the ATP synthase. A pair of previously described mutants, R210Q/Q252R and P204T/R210Q/Q252R [L.P. Hatch, G.B. Cox and S.M. Howitt, The essential arginine residue at position 210 in the a subunit of the Escherichia coli ATP synthase can be transferred to position 252 with partial retention of activity, J. Biol. Chem. 270 (1995) 29407-29412] has been constructed and further analyzed. These mutants, in which the essential arginine of subunit a, R210, was switched with a conserved glutamine residue, Q252, are shown here to be capable of both ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation, and ATP-driven proton translocation. In addition, lysine can replace the arginine at position 252 with partial retention of both activities. The pH dependence of ATP-driven proton translocation was determined after purification of mutant enzymes, and reconstitution into liposomes. Proton translocation by the lysine mutant, and to a lesser extent the arginine mutant, dropped off sharply above pH 7.5, consistent with the requirement for a positive charge during function. Finally, the rates of ATP synthesis and of ATP-driven proton translocation were completely inhibited by treatment with DCCD (N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide), while rates of ATP hydrolysis by the mutants were not significantly affected, indicating that DCCD modification disrupts the F(1)-F(o) interface. The results suggest that minimal requirements for proton translocation by the ATP synthase include a positive charge in subunit a and a weak interface between subunit a and oligomeric subunit c. 相似文献

Proton translocating ATPase (ATP synthase), a chemiosmotic enzyme, synthesizes ATP from ADP and phosphate coupling with the electrochemical ion gradient across the membrane. This enzyme has been studied extensively by combined genetic, biochemical and biophysical approaches. Such studies revealed a unique mechanism which transforms an electrochemical ion gradient into chemical energy through the rotation of a subunit assembly. Thus, this enzyme can be defined as a nano motor capable of coupling a chemical reaction and ion translocation, or more simply, as a protein complex carrying out rotational catalysis. In this article, we briefly discuss our recent work, emphasizing the rotation of subunit assembly (gammaepsilonc(10-12)) which is formed from peripheral and intrinsic membrane subunits. 相似文献

Subunit b of the Escherichia coli ATP synthase was isolated by preparative gel electrophoresis, acetone precipitated and after ion-pair extraction redissolved in a buffer either containing n-dodecyl-beta-D-maltoside or sodium cholate. The secondary structure of isolated subunit b was shown to be the same as within the FO complex, but was strongly dependent on the detergent used for replacement of the phospholipid environment. This was shown by an identical tryptic digestion pattern, which was strongly influenced by the detergent used for solubilization. An influence of the detergent n-dodecyl-beta-D-maltoside on the secondary structure of the hydrophilic part of subunit b was also shown for the soluble part of the polypeptide comprising residues Val25 to Leu156 (bsol) using CD spectroscopy. In order to determine the secondary structure of subunit b in its native conformation, isolated subunit b was reconstituted into E. coli lipid vesicles and analyzed with CD spectroscopy. The resulting spectrum revealed a secondary structure composition of 80% alpha helix together with 14% beta turn conformation. These results suggest that subunit b is not a rigid rod-like alpha helix simply linking F1 to FO, but rather provides an inherent flexibility for the storage of elastic energy within the second stalk generated by rotational movements within the F1FO complex. 相似文献

In Escherichia coli F(1)F(0) ATP synthase, the two b subunits dimerize forming the peripheral second stalk linking the membrane F(0) sector to F(1). Previously, we have demonstrated that the enzyme could accommodate relatively large deletions in the b subunits while retaining function (Sorgen, P. L., Caviston, T. L., Perry, R. C., and Cain, B. D. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 27873-27878). The manipulations of b subunit length have been extended by construction of insertion mutations into the uncF(b) gene adding amino acids to the second stalk. Mutants with insertions of seven amino acids were essentially identical to wild type strains, and mutants with insertions of up to 14 amino acids retained biologically significant levels of activity. Membranes prepared from these strains had readily detectable levels of F(1)F(0)-ATPase activity and proton pumping activity. However, the larger insertions resulted in decreasing levels of activity, and immunoblot analysis indicated that these reductions in activity correlated with reduced levels of b subunit in the membranes. Addition of 18 amino acids was sufficient to result in the loss of F(1)F(0) ATP synthase function. Assuming the predicted alpha-helical structure for this area of the b subunit, the 14-amino acid insertion would result in the addition of enough material to lengthen the b subunit by as much as 20 A. The results of both insertion and deletion experiments support a model in which the second stalk is a flexible feature of the enzyme rather than a rigid rod-like structure. 相似文献

The gamma subunit of the ATP synthase F(1) sector rotates at the center of the alpha(3)beta(3) hexamer during ATP hydrolysis. A gold bead (40-200 nm diameter) was attached to the gamma subunit of Escherichia coli F(1), and then its ATP hydrolysis-dependent rotation was studied. The rotation speeds were variable, showing stochastic fluctuation. The high-speed rates of 40- and 60-nm beads were essentially similar: 721 and 671 rps (revolutions/s), respectively. The average rate of 60-nm beads was 381 rps, which is approximately 13-fold faster than that expected from the steady-state ATPase turnover number. These results indicate that the F(1) sector rotates much faster than expected from the bulk of ATPase activity, and that approximately 10% of the F(1) molecules are active on the millisecond time scale. Furthermore, the real ATP turnover number (number of ATP molecules converted to ADP and phosphate/s), as a single molecule, is variable during a short period. The epsilon subunit inhibited rotation and ATPase, whereas epsilon fused through its carboxyl terminus to cytochrome b(562) showed no effect. The epsilon subunit significantly increased the pausing time during rotation. Stochastic fluctuation of catalysis may be a general property of an enzyme, although its understanding requires combining studies of steady-state kinetics and single molecule observation. 相似文献

F1F0 ATP synthase subunit c is a substrate of the novel YidC pathway for membrane protein biogenesis
van der Laan M Bechtluft P Kol S Nouwen N Driessen AJ 《The Journal of cell biology》2004,165(2):213-222
The Escherichia coli YidC protein belongs to the Oxa1 family of membrane proteins that have been suggested to facilitate the insertion and assembly of membrane proteins either in cooperation with the Sec translocase or as a separate entity. Recently, we have shown that depletion of YidC causes a specific defect in the functional assembly of F1F0 ATP synthase and cytochrome o oxidase. We now demonstrate that the insertion of in vitro-synthesized F1F0 ATP synthase subunit c (F0c) into inner membrane vesicles requires YidC. Insertion is independent of the proton motive force, and proteoliposomes containing only YidC catalyze the membrane insertion of F0c in its native transmembrane topology whereupon it assembles into large oligomers. Co-reconstituted SecYEG has no significant effect on the insertion efficiency. Remarkably, signal recognition particle and its membrane-bound receptor FtsY are not required for the membrane insertion of F0c. In conclusion, a novel membrane protein insertion pathway in E. coli is described in which YidC plays an exclusive role. 相似文献

The role of the C-terminal part of yeast ATP synthase subunit 4 (subunit b) in the assembly of the whole enzyme was studied by using nonsense mutants generated by site-directed mutagenesis. The removal of at least the last 10 amino-acid residues promoted mutants which were unable to grow with glycerol or lactate as carbon source. These mutants were devoid of subunit 4 and of another F0 subunit, the mitochondrially encoded subunit 6. The removal of the last eight amino-acid residues promoted a temperature-sensitive mutant (PVY161). At 37 degrees C this strain showed the same phenotype as above. When grown at permissive temperature (30 degrees C) with lactate as carbon source, PVY161 and the wild-type strain both displayed the same generation time and growth yield. Furthermore, the two strains showed identical cellular respiration rates at 30 degrees C and 37 degrees C. However, in vitro the ATP hydrolysis of PVY161 mitochondria exhibited a low sensitivity to F0 inhibitors, while ATP synthesis displayed the same oligomycin sensitivity as wild-type mitochondria. It is concluded that, in this mutant, the assembly of the truncated subunit 4 in PVY161 ATP synthase is thermosensitive and that, once a functional F0 is formed, it is stable. On the other hand, the removal of the last eight amino-acid residues promoted in vitro a proton leak between the site of action of oligomycin and F1. 相似文献
