Mechanism of ATP hydrolysis dependent rotation of bacterial ATP synthase [PDF]
F1 domain of ATP synthase is a rotary ATPase complex in which rotation of central γ-subunit proceeds in 120° steps against a surrounding α3β3 fueled by ATP hydrolysis. How the ATP hydrolysis reactions occurring in three catalytic αβ dimers are coupled to

Defining the role of ATP hydrolysis in mitotic segregation of bacterial plasmids. [PDF]
Hydrolysis of ATP by partition ATPases, although considered a key step in the segregation mechanism that assures stable inheritance of plasmids, is intrinsically very weak.

Symmetry broken and rebroken during the ATP hydrolysis cycle of the mitochondrial Hsp90 TRAP1
Hsp90 is a homodimeric ATP-dependent molecular chaperone that remodels its substrate ‘client’ proteins, facilitating their folding and activating them for biological function.

ATP hydrolysis by the viral RNA sensor RIG-I prevents unintentional recognition of self-RNA
The cytosolic antiviral innate immune sensor RIG-I distinguishes 5′ tri- or diphosphate containing viral double-stranded (ds) RNA from self-RNA by an incompletely understood mechanism that involves ATP hydrolysis by RIG-I's RNA translocase domain ...

The conformational changes coupling ATP hydrolysis and translocation in a bacterial DnaB helicase
DnaB helicases are motor proteins that couple ATP-hydrolysis to the movement of the protein along single-stranded DNA leading to a separation of double-stranded DNA at the replication fork.

ATP Hydrolysis by α‐Synuclein Amyloids is Mediated by Enclosing β‐Strand [PDF]
Pathological amyloids, like those formed by α‐synuclein in Parkinson's disease, are recently found to catalyze the hydrolysis of model substrates in vitro.

Rotary mechanism of V/A-ATPases—how is ATP hydrolysis converted into a mechanical step rotation in rotary ATPases? [PDF]
V/A-ATPase is a rotary molecular motor protein that produces ATP through the rotation of its central rotor. The soluble part of this protein, the V1 domain, rotates upon ATP hydrolysis.

Beyond binding change: the molecular mechanism of ATP hydrolysis by F1-ATPase and its biochemical consequences [PDF]
F1-ATPase is a universal multisubunit enzyme and the smallest-known motor that, fueled by the process of ATP hydrolysis, rotates in 120o steps. A central question is how the elementary chemical steps occurring in the three catalytic sites are coupled to ...
