Abstract
We introduced mutations at the fully conserved residue Glu-195 in subunit beta of Rhodospirillum rubrum F1-ATPase. The activities of the expressed wild type (WT) and mutant beta subunits were assayed by following their capacity to assemble into the earlier prepared beta-depleted, membrane-bound R. rubrum enzyme (Philosoph, S., Binder, A., and Gromet-Elhanan, Z. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 8742-8747) and to restore ATP synthesis and/or hydrolysis activity. All three mutations, beta-E195K, beta-E195Q, and beta-E195G, were found to bind as the WTbeta into the beta-depleted enzyme. They restored between 30 and 60% of the WT restored photophosphorylation activity and 16, 45, and 105%, respectively of the CaATPase activity. The mutants required, however, much higher concentrations of divalent cations and could not restore any significant MgATPase or MnATPase activities. Only beta-E195G could restore some of these activities when assayed in the presence of 100 mM sulfite and high MgCl2 or MnCl2 concentrations. These results suggest that the observed difference in restoration of ATP synthesis and CaATPase, as compared with MgATPase and MnATPase, can be due to the tight regulation of the last two activities, resulting in their inhibition...Continue Reading
