Ground state structure of F1-ATPase from bovine heart mitochondria (Bovine F1-ATPase crystallised in the absence of azide)
Structural highlights
FunctionATPA_BOVIN Mitochondrial membrane ATP synthase (F(1)F(0) ATP synthase or Complex V) produces ATP from ADP in the presence of a proton gradient across the membrane which is generated by electron transport complexes of the respiratory chain. F-type ATPases consist of two structural domains, F(1) - containing the extramembraneous catalytic core, and F(0) - containing the membrane proton channel, linked together by a central stalk and a peripheral stalk. During catalysis, ATP synthesis in the catalytic domain of F(1) is coupled via a rotary mechanism of the central stalk subunits to proton translocation. Subunits alpha and beta form the catalytic core in F(1). Rotation of the central stalk against the surrounding alpha(3)beta(3) subunits leads to hydrolysis of ATP in three separate catalytic sites on the beta subunits. Subunit alpha does not bear the catalytic high-affinity ATP-binding sites (By similarity). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedThe structure of bovine F(1)-ATPase, crystallized in the presence of AMP-PNP and ADP, but in the absence of azide, has been determined at 1.9A resolution. This structure has been compared with the previously described structure of bovine F(1)-ATPase determined at 1.95A resolution with crystals grown under the same conditions but in the presence of azide. The two structures are extremely similar, but they differ in the nucleotides that are bound to the catalytic site in the beta(DP)-subunit. In the present structure, the nucleotide binding sites in the beta(DP)- and beta(TP)-subunits are both occupied by AMP-PNP, whereas in the earlier structure, the beta(TP) site was occupied by AMP-PNP and the beta(DP) site by ADP, where its binding is enhanced by a bound azide ion. Also, the conformation of the side chain of the catalytically important residue, alphaArg-373 differs in the beta(DP)- and beta(TP)-subunits. Thus, the structure with bound azide represents the ADP inhibited state of the enzyme, and the new structure represents a ground state intermediate in the active catalytic cycle of ATP hydrolysis.
