Activity: Iron-chelate-transporting ATPase, with EC number 3.6.3.34 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum Function [ATPF_ECOLI] F(1)F(0) ATP synthase produces ATP from ADP in the presence of a proton or sodium gradient. 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 (By similarity). Component of the F(0) channel, it forms part of the peripheral stalk, linking F(1) to F(0) (By similarity). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The b subunit of E. coli F(0)F(1)-ATPase links the peripheral F(1) subunits to the membrane-integral F(0) portion and functions as a "stator", preventing rotation of F(1). The b subunit is present as a dimer in ATP synthase, and residues 62-122 are required to mediate dimerization. To understand how the b subunit dimer is formed, we have studied the structure of the isolated dimerization domain, b(62-122). Analytical ultracentrifugation and solution small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) indicate that the b(62-122) dimer is extremely elongated, with a frictional ratio of 1.60, a maximal dimension of 95 A, and a radius of gyration of 27 A, values that are consistent with an alpha-helical coiled-coil structure. The crystal structure of b(62-122) has been solved and refined to 1.55 A. The protein crystallized as an isolated, monomeric alpha helix with a length of 90 A. Combining the crystal structure of monomeric b(62-122) with SAXS data from the dimer in solution, we have constructed a model for the b(62-122) dimer in which the two helices form a coiled coil with a right-handed superhelical twist. Analysis of b sequences from E. coli and other prokaryotes indicates conservation of an undecad repeat, which is characteristic of a right-handed coiled coil and consistent with our structural model. Mutation of residue Arg-83, which interrupts the undecad pattern, to alanine markedly stabilized the dimer, as expected for the proposed two-stranded, right-handed coiled-coil structure.
