Research Abstract |
I analyzed rotation mechanism of F-type ATPase using single molecule observation system in order to understand those of proton ATPases including V-type ATPase in osteoclast. Thermodynamic analysis of the rotation indicated that a specific γ-β interaction in F1 sector is important for flat energy pathway during the rotation, and F1 requires ~2-fold higher activation energy for the transition from the active state (continuous rotation) to the inhibited state (~1 sec pausing) compared with that for normal steady-state rotation during the active state.
