| Research Abstract |
Nucleotide-driven molecular motor operates by the coupling between mechanical work and chemical reaction in the catalytic site : binding/release of nucleotides and ligand, and the hydrolysis. Induced fit, proposed by Daniel Koshland, and induced. unfit. that is the reverse process are expected to underlie the operation mechanism. Here, by using fluorescently labeled(Cy3) ATP we have directly detected the conformational changes at the catalytic site on. subunit, which are induced by binding and release of nucleotide/ligand, while a single molecule of F1-ATPase is rotating.
