UniProt functional annotation for P68699

UniProt codes: P68699, P00844.

Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia.
 
Function: F(1)F(0) ATP synthase produces ATP from ADP in the presence of a proton or sodium gradient. F-type ATPases consist of two structural domains, F(1) containing the extramembraneous catalytic core and F(0) containing the membrane proton channel, linked together by a central stalk and a peripheral stalk. During catalysis, ATP synthesis in the catalytic domain of F(1) is coupled via a rotary mechanism of the central stalk subunits to proton translocation.
 
Function: Key component of the F(0) channel; it plays a direct role in translocation across the membrane. A homomeric c-ring of 10 subunits forms the central stalk rotor element with the F(1) delta and epsilon subunits.
 
Subunit: F-type ATPases have 2 components, F(1) - the catalytic core - and F(0) - the membrane proton channel. F(1) has five subunits: alpha(3), beta(3), gamma(1), delta(1), epsilon(1). F(0) has three main subunits: a(1), b(2) and c(10). The alpha and beta chains form an alternating ring which encloses part of the gamma chain. F(1) is attached to F(0) by a central stalk formed by the gamma and epsilon chains, while a peripheral stalk is formed by the delta and b chains. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11320246}.
Subcellular location: Cell inner membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15919996}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15919996}.
Miscellaneous: Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCDD) binding to the reversibly protonated aspartate residue inhibits ATPase in vitro.
Miscellaneous: In this organism c-rings of between c(8) and c(12) can be isolated in vivo following experimental manipulations, however only c(8) and c(9), in addition to c(10), are partially functional. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:11320246}.
Similarity: Belongs to the ATPase C chain family. {ECO:0000305}.
