| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
All the cells in our body rely on the sufficient and well balanced energy supply in the form of the molecule ATP. Most ATP is produced by a large membrane supercomplex, the F-ATP synthase. How this very large protein complex achieves its energy transformation function is not very well understood yet. In this project we attempted to improve our understanding by inventing novel ways to purify fragile F-ATP synthase from cow heart muscle tissue and analyze its structure and function by cryo electron microscopy and other methods. We succeeded to find new ways to purifiy the protein complex that preserves it during isolation. All physiological functions of the F-ATP synthase could be preserved. We also invented novel ways to put the F-ATP synthase into artificial membranes, which was important to confirm new channel functions of F-ATP synthase. In summary, we have now established a firm basis for structure and function analysis in solution as well as in artificial membrane systems.
