Abstract excerpt
Membrane-integral pyrophosphatases (M-PPases) are crucial for the survival of plants, bacteria, and protozoan parasites. They couple pyrophosphate hydrolysis or synthesis to Na(+) or H(+) pumping. The 2.6-angstrom structure of Thermotoga maritima M-PPase in the resting state reveals a previously...
