The document summarizes the structure and function of F1Fo ATP synthase, a membrane-bound enzyme that catalyzes ATP synthesis using an electrochemical proton gradient. It consists of two main components, F1, which protrudes into the mitochondrial matrix and contains the catalytic sites, and Fo, which forms a proton channel embedded in the membrane. During ATP synthesis, protons flow through the Fo channel, causing the central stalk to rotate and drive conformational changes in the F1 catalytic sites that catalyze ATP formation from ADP and phosphate. The rotation mechanism and roles of key subunits like c and a are described.
ATP synthase—also called FoF1 ATPase is the universal protein that terminates oxidative phosphorylation by synthesizing ATP from ADP and phosphate.

2. F1
Fo
ATP Synthase of mitochondria, chloroplasts, bacteria:
When the electrochemical H+
gradient is favorable, F1Fo
catalyzes ATP synthesis coupled to spontaneous H+

toward the mitochondrial matrix).

3. If no ∆pH or ∆Ψ exists to drive the forward reaction, Keq
favors the reverse, ATP hydrolysis (ATPase).
In some bacteria, the reverse reaction has a physiological
role, providing a mechanism for ATP-dependent creation
of a proton gradient that drives other reactions.

4. Inhibitors of F1Fo,that block H+
transport coupled to
ATP synthesis or hydrolysis, include:
oligomycin, an antibiotic
DCCD (dicyclohexylcarbodiimide), a reagent that
reacts with carboxyl groups in hydrophobic
environments, forming a covalent adduct.
5. Roles of major subunits were determined in studies of
submitochondrial particles (SMP).
In mitochondria treated with ultrasound, inner membrane
breaks & reseals as vesicles, with F1 on the outer surface.
Since F1 of intact mitochondria faces the matrix, these SMP
are said to be inside out.
By EM with negative stain,
ATP Synthase appeared as
"lollipops" on the inner
mitochondrial membrane,
facing the matrix.
Higher resolution cryo-EM
later showed each lollipop
to have 2 stalks. See Movie.

6. After removal of F1, the SMP membrane containing Fo is
leaky to H+
.
Adding back F1 restores normal low permeability to H+
.
Thus it was established that Fo includes a “H+
channel."
F1, the lollipop head,
when extracted from
SMP, catalyzes ATP
hydrolysis (spontaneous
reaction in the absence
of an energy input).
Thus F1 contains the
catalytic domain(s).

7. Either oligomycin or DCCD blocks the H+
leak in
membranes depleted of F1

Thus oligomycin & DCCD inhibit the ATP Synthase by

chloroplasts are very similar, with only minor differences.

8. Mitochondria are believed to have evolved from symbiotic
aerobic bacteria ingested by an anaerobic host cell.
The limiting membrane of the bacterium became the inner
mitochondrial membrane.
Mitochondria contain a small DNA chromosome, but genes
that encode most mitochondrial proteins are in the nucleus,
consistent with transfer of some DNA during evolution.

9. Looking down at the membrane,
α & β subunits alternate around
a ring (γ to be discussed later.)
The subunit composition of the ATP Synthase was first
established for E. coli, which has an operon that encodes
genes for all subunits.
Stalk subunits were classified initially as part of F1 or Fo,
based on whether they co-purified with extracted F1.
F1 subunits were named with Greek letters in order of
decreasing MW.
They are present with stoichiometry α3, β3, γ, δ, ε.
The α & β subunits (513 & 460 aa residues in E. coli) are
homologous to one another.

Stoichiometry of these subunits in E. coli Fo is a, b2

.
Mammalian mitochondrial F1Fo is slightly more complex
than the bacterial enzyme, with a few additional subunits.
Also, since names were assigned based on apparent
molecular weights, some subunits were given different
names in different organisms.

12. Bovine δ subunit turned out to be homologous to the
E. coli ε subunit.
Bovine ε subunit is unique.
A bovine subunit called OSCP (oligomycin sensitivity
conferral protein) is homologous to the E. coli δ subunit.
The bovine enzyme has additional subunits d & F6.
There is evidence that the ATP Synthase (F1Fo) may form a
complex with adenine nucleotide translocase (ADP/ATP
antiporter) & phosphate carrier (Pi/H+
symporter).
This complex has been designated the ATP Synthasome.
13. The binding change mechanism of energy coupling was
proposed by Paul Boyer.
He shared the Nobel prize for this model that accounts
for the existence of 3 catalytic sites in F1
.
For simplicity, only the catalytic β subunits are shown.
It is proposed that an irregularly shaped shaft linked
to Fo rotates relative to the ring of 3 β subunits.
The rotation is driven by flow of H+
through Fo

Binding Change Mechanism
The conformation of each β subunit changes sequentially
as it interacts with the rotating shaft.
Each β subunit is in a different stage of the catalytic cycle
at any time. E.g, the green subunit sequentially changes to:
a loose conformation in which the active site can loosely
bind ADP + Pi
a tight conformation in which substrates are tightly
bound and ATP is formed
an open conformation that favors ATP release.
15. The γ subunit includes a bent helical loop that constitutes a
"shaft" within the ring of α & β subunits.
Shown is bovine F1 treated with DCCD to yield crystals in
which more of the central stalk is ordered, allowing
structure determination. Colors: α, β, γ, δ, ε.

with the central
stalk was solved
by J. Walker,
who shared the
Nobel prize.
16. Note the wide base of the rotary shaft, including part of
γ as well as δ and ε subunits.
Recall that the bovine δ subunit, which is at the base of
the shaft, is equivalent to ε of bacterial F1.

17. In crystals of F1 not treated with DCCD, less of the shaft
structure is solved, but ligand binding may be observed
under more natural conditions.
The 3β subunits are found to differ in conformation &
bound ligand.

18. Bound to one β subunit is a non-hydrolyzable ATP
analog (assumed to be the tight conformation).
Bound to another β subunit is ADP (loose).
The third β subunit has an empty active site (open).
This is consistent with the binding change model, which
predicts that each β subunit, being differently affected by
the irregularly shaped rotating shaft, will be in a different
stage of the catalytic cycle.

19. Additional data are consistent with an intermediate
conformation between each of the 3 states shown.
This intermediate conformation may have nucleotide bound
at all 3 sites. By one model, in the left image above:
ATP synthesis (on green subunit) is associated with
transition to an intermediate conformation that allows
binding of ADP + Pi to the previously empty site (magenta).
A further conformational change then occurs as ATP formed
in the previous step is released (from cyan subunit).

21. β subunits of F1 were tethered to a glass surface.

22. Some observations indicate that each 120o
step consists of

substeps, with a brief intervening pause.
Such substeps are consistent with evidence for an

transitions, discussed above.

accepted, some details of the reaction cycle are still
debated.

24. The c subunit of Fo has a hairpin
structure with 2 transmembrane
α-helices & a short connecting loop.
The small c subunit (79 aa in E.
coli) is also called proteolipid,
because of its hydrophobicity.
One α-helix includes an Asp or Glu
residue whose carboxyl reacts with
DCCD (Asp61 in E coli).
Mutation studies have shown that
this DCCD-reactive carboxyl, in the
middle of the bilayer, is essential
for H+
transport through Fo.

27. Mitochondrial ATP Synthase E. coli ATP Synthase
These images depicting models of ATP Synthase subunit
structure were provided by John Walker. Some equivalent
subunits from different organisms have different names.
28. Mitochondrial F1Fo E. coli F1Fo
In some bacteria a portion of ε has an added role inhibiting
the reverse rotation that accompanies ATP hydrolysis.
A separate inhibitory peptide in mitochondria prevents
F1Fo from hydrolyzing ATP when there is no H+
gradient to
drive ATP synthesis, e.g., under anoxic conditions.
Proposed "rotor": the
ring of 10 c subunits,
plus the central stalk
• γ & ε in E. coli
• γ, δ, & ε in
mitochondria.
E. coli ε (mito. δ) helps
attach γ to the rotating
ring of c subunits.
29. Mitochondrial F1Fo E. coli F1Fo
The proposed "stator" consists of the 3α & 3β F1 subunits,
a subunit of Fo, & a peripheral stalk that connects these.
The peripheral stalk consists of 2b & δ in E. coli or
subunits b, d, F6, & OSCP in bovine mitochondria.
30. Mitochondrial F1Fo E. coli F1Fo
OSCP, homologous to E. coli δ, interacts with the end of
the b subunit & with the distal end of an F1 α subunit.
This linkage, plus interactions of b with residues on F1,
are postulated to hold back the ring of α & β subunits,
keeping it from rotating along with the central stalk.
The b subunit includes
a membrane anchor,
1 transmembrane
α-helix in E. coli; 2 in
mammalian F1Fo, that
interacts with the intra-
membrane a subunit.
A polar α-helical
domain of b extends out
from the membrane.
31. The a subunit of Fo (271 amino
acid residues in E. coli) is
predicted from hydropathy plots,
to include several trans-membrane
α-helices.
It has been proposed that the
intramembrane a subunit contains
2 half-channels or proton wires
(each a series of protonatable
groups or embedded waters), that
allow passage of protons between
the two membrane surfaces & the
bilayer interior.

32. Protons may be relayed from one
half-channel or proton wire to the
other only via the DCCD-sensitive
carboxyl group of a c-subunit.
Recall that the essential carboxyl
group of each c-subunit (Asp61 in
E. coli) is located half way through
the membrane.

Fo subunit c
PDB 1A91
An essential arginine residue on one of the trans-
membrane a-subunit α-helices has been identified as the
group that accepts a proton from Asp61 and passes it to
the exit channel.
33. As the ring of 10 c subunits
rotates, the c-subunit carboxyls
relay protons between the
2 a-subunit half-channels.
This allows H+
gradient-driven
H+
flux across the membrane
to drive the rotation.

34. Rotation of the ring of c subunits may result from

are passed from or to each half-channel.
