Some ATPases work in reverse, using the energy from the hydrolysis of ATP to create a proton gradient. There are different types of ATPases, which can differ in function (ATP synthesis and/or hydrolysis), structure (F-, V- and A-ATPases contain rotary motors) and in the type of ions they transport. [3] [4] The types with this domain include:
ADP and Pi (inorganic phosphate) bind spontaneously to the three β subunits of the F 1 domain, so that every time it goes through a 120° rotation ATP is released (rotational catalysis). The F o domains sits within the membrane, spanning the phospholipid bilayer, while the F 1 domain extends into the cytosol of the cell to facilitate the use ...
F-ATP synthases are identical in appearance and function except for the mitochondrial F 0 F 1-ATP synthase, which contains 7-9 additional subunits. [12] The electrochemical potential is what causes the c-ring to rotate in a clockwise direction for ATP synthesis. This causes the central stalk and the catalytic domain to change shape.

ATPases (or ATP synthases) are membrane-bound enzyme complexes/ion transporters that combine ATP synthesis and/or hydrolysis with the transport of protons across a membrane. ATPases can harness the energy from a proton gradient, using the flux of ions across the membrane via the ATPase proton channel to drive the synthesis of ATP. Some ATPases ...
Structure of ATP Structure of ADP Four possible resonance structures for inorganic phosphate. ATP hydrolysis is the catabolic reaction process by which chemical energy that has been stored in the high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is released after splitting these bonds, for example in muscles, by producing work in the form of mechanical energy.
Molecular structure of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) An ATP-binding motif is a 250-residue sequence within an ATP-binding protein’s primary structure. The binding motif is associated with a protein’s structure and/or function. [1] ATP is a molecule of energy, and can be a coenzyme, involved in a number of biological reactions.
The 3D structure of a monomeric ABC module adopts a stubby L-shape with two distinct arms. [1] [2] ArmI (mainly beta-strand) contains Walker A and Walker B. The important residues for ATP hydrolysis and/or binding are located in the P-loop. The ATP-binding pocket is located at the extremity of armI.
