Molecular Architecture of the Rotary Motor in ATP Synthase

Daniela Stock, 1 Andrew G. W. Leslie, 2 John E. Walker 1*

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase contains a rotary motor involved in biological energy conversion. Its membrane-embedded F0 sector has a rotation generator fueled by the proton-motive force, which provides the energy required for the synthesis of ATP by the F1 domain. An electron density map obtained from crystals of a subcomplex of yeast mitochondrial ATP synthase shows a ring of 10 c subunits. Each c subunit forms an alpha -helical hairpin. The interhelical loops of six to seven of the c subunits are in close contact with the gamma  and delta  subunits of the central stalk. The extensive contact between the c ring and the stalk suggests that they may rotate as an ensemble during catalysis.
