ATP synthase research has reached a milestone as single-molecule techniques are used to examine the direction and stepping of the proton gradient–driven rotation, to determine the effect of forced ...

For more than 20 years, Makoto Miyata from Osaka City University has been studying the gliding motility of the parasitic bacterium Mycoplasma mobile (M. mobile). It is a mechanism consisting of an ...

The mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase produces most of the ATP required by mammalian cells. We isolated porcine tetrameric ATP synthase and solved its structure at 6.2-angstrom ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Mitochondria have a characteristic ultrastructure with invaginations of the inner membrane called cristae that contain the protein complexes ...

Using electron microscopy and high-speed atomic force microscopy, researchers show the internal molecular motor behind the gliding mechanism for Mycoplasma mobile to consist of two ATP synthase-like ...
