Functional reconstitution of vacuolar H+-ATPase from Vo proton channel and mutant V1-ATPase provides insight into the mechanism of reversible disassembly.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase; V1Vo-ATPase) is an ATP-dependent proton pump that acidifies subcellular compartments in all eukaryotic organisms. V-ATPase activity is regulated by reversible disassembly into autoinhibited V1-ATPase and Vo proton channel subcomplexes, a process that is poorly understood on the molecular level. V-ATPase is a rotary motor, and recent structural analyses have revealed different rotary states for disassembled V1 and Vo, a mismatch that is likely responsible for their inability to reconstitute into holo V-ATPase in vitro Here, using the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we show that a key impediment for binding of V1 to Vo is the conformation
