ATP hydrolysis kinetics and thermodynamics as determinants of calcium oscillation in pancreatic β cells

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2022
Cellular ATP plays an important role in the calcium oscillation signal transduction pathway of pancreatic β cells. It triggers oscillation by binding the ATP-sensitive K^{+} channels (K_{ATP}), and maintains the oscillation by providing ATP hydrolysis ...

Pathway of processive ATP hydrolysis by kinesin [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1995
Direct measurement of the kinetics of kinesin dissociation from microtubules, the release of phosphate and ADP from kinesin, and rebinding of kinesin to the microtubule have defined the mechanism for the kinesin ATPase cycle. The processivity of ATP hydrolysis is ten molecules per site at low salt concentration but is reduced to one ATP per site at ...

Zooming in on ATP Hydrolysis in F1 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 2005
We summarize our current view of the reaction mechanism in F(1)-ATPase as it has emerged from experiment, theory, and computational studies over the last several years. ATP catalysis in the catalytic binding pockets of F(1) takes place without the release of any significant free energy and is efficiently driven by the combined action of two water ...

Roles of ATP Hydrolysis by FtsEX and Interaction with FtsA in Regulation of Septal Peptidoglycan Synthesis and Hydrolysis

open access: yesmBio, 2020
In Escherichia coli, FtsEX coordinates peptidoglycan (PG) synthesis and hydrolysis at the septum. It acts on FtsA in the cytoplasm to promote recruitment of septal PG synthetases and recruits EnvC, an activator of septal PG hydrolases, in the periplasm ...

Reformulation of an extant ATPase active site to mimic ancestral GTPase activity reveals a nucleotide base requirement for function

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphates releases similar amounts of energy. However, ATP hydrolysis is typically used for energy-intensive reactions, whereas GTP hydrolysis typically functions as a switch.

Molecular Mechanism of ATP Hydrolysis in an ABC Transporter

open access: yesACS Central Science, 2018
Hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphate (NTP) plays a key role for the function of many biomolecular systems. However, the chemistry of the catalytic reaction in terms of an atomic-level understanding of the structural, dynamic, and free energy changes ...

How Does F1-ATPase Generate Torque?: Analysis From Cryo-Electron Microscopy and Rotational Catalysis of Thermophilic F1

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The F1-ATPase is a rotary motor fueled by ATP hydrolysis. Its rotational dynamics have been well characterized using single-molecule rotation assays. While F1-ATPases from various species have been studied using rotation assays, the standard model for ...

Structural snapshots of V/A-ATPase reveal the rotary catalytic mechanism of rotary ATPases

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The rotary ATPases use a rotary catalytic mechanism to drive transmembrane proton movement powered by ATP hydrolysis. Here, the authors report a collection of V/A-ATPase V1 domain structures, providing insights into rotary mechanism of the enzyme and ...

Substrate-engaged 26S proteasome structures reveal mechanisms for ATP-hydrolysis–driven translocation

open access: yesScience, 2018
Molecular-motor coordination The proteasome is a cytosolic molecular machine that recognizes and degrades unneeded or damaged proteins that have been tagged with ubiquitin.
