| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, the structure of the entire V-ATPase (Eh V-ATPase), an ATP-driven sodium pump from Enterococcus hirae (Eh), was revealed by electron microscopy single particle analysis, and the selective ion transport mechanism was elucidated. It was found that in Eh V-ATPase, the rotor was bound to the off-center position of the rotating ring in the membrane. In addition, the major structural state of Eh V-ATPase was found to correspond to the minor structural state of the thermophilic bacterium V / A-ATPase. Furthermore, the mechanism by which Na+ is passed to the rotating c-ring is clarified.
