ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation, catalyzed by F1F0-
ATP synthase, is the fundamental means of cell energy production. Earlier mutagenesis …

Since the chemiosmotic theory was proposed by Peter Mitchell in the 1960s, a major
objective has been to elucidate the mechanism of coupling of the transmembrane proton …

Biomolecular motors such as F1–adenosine triphosphate synthase (F1-ATPase) and myosin
are similar in size, and they generate forces compatible with currently producible …

This Handbook on Metalloproteins focuses on the available structural information of proteins
and their metal ion coordination spheres. It centers on the metal ions indispensable for life …

A single molecule of F1–ATPase is by itself a rotary motor in which a central γ–subunit
rotates against a surrounding cylinder made of α3β3–subunits. Driven by the three βs that …

ATP synthase, a major ATP supplier in the cell, is a rotary machine found next to the
bacterial flagella motor in the biological world. This enzyme is composed of two motors, F0 …

▪ Abstract F1-ATPase is a rotary motor made of a single protein molecule. Its rotation is
driven by free energy obtained by ATP hydrolysis. In vivo, another motor, Fo, presumably …

The structure of the F 1-ATPase from spinach chloroplasts was determined to 3.2 Å
resolution by molecular replacement based on the homologous structure of the bovine …

Abstract ATP synthase (FOF 1) operates as two rotary motor/generators coupled by a
common shaft. Both portions, F 1 and FO, are rotary steppers. Their symmetries are …

The ubiquitous biological nanomotors were classified into two categories in the past: linear
and rotation motors. In 2013, a third type of biomotor, revolution without rotation …
