Abstract excerpt
The a subunit of F(1)F(o) (F(1)F(o)-ATP synthase) is a highly hydrophobic protein with five putative transmembrane helices which plays a central role in H(+)-translocation coupled with ATP synthesis/hydrolysis. In the present paper, we show that the a subunit produced by the in vitro protease-free protein synthesis system (the PURE system) is integrated into a preformed F(o) a-less F(1)F(o) complex in Escherichia...
