Modulation of charge in the phosphate binding site of Escherichia coli ATP synthase.

Abstract excerpt

This paper presents a study of the role of positive charge in the P(i) binding site of Escherichia coli ATP synthase, the enzyme responsible for ATP-driven proton extrusion and ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation. Arginine residues are known to occur with high propensity in P(i) binding sites of proteins generally and in the P(i) binding site of the betaE catalytic site of ATP synthase specifically....
