Abstract excerpt
The proteolipid subunit c of F1F0-type H(+)-transporting ATP synthases [ATP phosphohydrolase (H(+)-transporting), EC 3.6.1.34] contains a conserved Asp/Glu residue that is thought to function in H+ translocation. To test the importance of the position of this residue in the Escherichia coli enzyme, we used oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis to move the carboxyl side chain from position 61 to position 58, 60, or...
