Abstract excerpt
The F0 sector of the Escherichia coli H+ transporting ATP synthase is composed of a complex of three subunits, each of which traverses the inner membrane. We have studied the interdependence of subunit insertion into the membrane in a series of chromosomal mutants in which the primary mutation prevented insertion of one of the F0 subunits. Subunit insertion was assessed using Western blots of mutant membrane...
