Figure 6 Two possible reaction schemes for ATP hydrolysis by
F[1]-ATPase. In parts (A) and (B) F[1]-ATPase is depicted as
viewed from the membrane proximal aspect of the intact ATP
synthase. For simplicity, only the catalytic -subunits
and the centrally located -subunit
are shown. ATP^* represents an ATP molecule that is committed to
hydrolysis. See text for further details.
