The γ‐subunit of ATP synthase from spinach chloroplasts Primary structure deduced from the cloned cDNA sequence

Abstract: cDNA clones encoding the y-subunit of chloroplast ATP synthase were isolated from a spinach library using synthetic oligonucleotide probes. The predicted amino acid sequence indicated that the mature chloroplast y-subunit consists of 323 amino acid residues and is highly homologous (55% identical residues) with the sequence of the cyanobacterial subunit. The positions of the four cysteine residues were identified. The carboxyl-terminal region of the choloroplast y-subunit is highly homologous with those of the… Show more

“…Redox-regulation of ATP synthase activity via the g-subunit only occurs in higher plants and green algae (Miki et al, 1988), suggesting that the regulatory mechanism of ATP synthase activity is quite different between cyanobacteria and photosynthetic eukaryotes (Ort and Oxborough, 1992). Based on the structure of CF 1 b, it is clear that the residues in CF 1 b5 are very close to the ADP/ATP binding site.…”

“…The conservation of amino acid residues in the Cterminal part of the ␥-subunit (52,53) and in the residues that form the sleeve (25,52), and the effects of mutations in this region of the enzyme in various species (54)(55)(56)(57)(58)(59), provide further support for this view. However, this conclusion seems to be contradicted by experiments on the Escherichia coli, chloroplast, and Bacillus PS3 enzymes, where it has been reported that the C-terminal region ␣-helix of the ␥-subunit can be shortened (by up to 12, 20, and 21 residues, respectively) without effect on catalytic activity (60,61).…”

“…The total number of amino acids (aa) of the various proteins is given at the end of the sequences. February 1990 [6,32] and Cys-205 which release a cysteine-containing peptide (S2 peptide: -CVDAAEDELFR-, [7,29]). This cysteine, which is not present in the Synechocystis sequence, forms a disulfide bridge with the neighboring Cys-199 in oxidized chloroplast ATPase.…”
