Abstract excerpt
The method of voltage clamp fluorometry combined with site-directed fluorescence labeling was used to detect local protein motions of the fully active Na(+)K(+)-ATPase in real time under physiological conditions. Because helix M5 extends from the cytoplasmic site of ATP hydrolysis into the cation binding region, we chose the extracellular M5-M6 loop of the sheep alpha(1)-subunit for the insertion of cysteine...
