Reconstitution in Vitro of the V1 Complex from the Yeast Vacuolar Proton-translocating ATPase [PDF]
Oligomeric assembly is a fundamental aspect of many complex enzymes. Using our native gel technique for examining subcomplexes of the V-ATPase V1 sector, we have developed an in vitro reconstitution assay for assembly of this complex. Assembly of complex II, the soluble V1 complex observed in native gels, is dependent upon the presence of divalent ...

Vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase (V-ATPase) is located in fungal vacuolar membranes. It is involved in multiple cellular processes, including the maintenance of intracellular ion homeostasis by maintaining acidic pH within the cell. The importance of V-ATPase in virulence has been demonstrated in several pathogenic fungi, including Candida albicans.

Transmembrane Topography of the 100-kDa a Subunit (Vph1p) of the Yeast Vacuolar Proton-translocating ATPase [PDF]
The membrane topography of the yeast vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase a subunit (Vph1p) has been investigated using cysteine-scanning mutagenesis. A Cys-less form of Vph1p lacking the seven endogenous cysteines was constructed and shown to have 80% of wild type activity.

Role of vacuolar acidification in protein sorting and zymogen activation: a genetic analysis of the yeast vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase. [PDF]
Vacuolar acidification has been proposed to play a key role in a number of cellular processes, including protein sorting, zymogen activation, and maintenance of intracellular pH. We investigated the significance of vacuolar acidification by cloning and mutagenizing the gene for the yeast vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase 60-kilodalton subunit (VAT2).

The proton translocation domain of cellular vacuolar ATPase provides a target for the treatment of influenza A virus infections [PDF]
Cellular vacuolar ATPases (v-ATPase) play an important role in endosomal acidification, a critical step in influenza A virus (IAV) host cell infection. We investigated the antiviral activity of the v-ATPase inhibitor saliphenylhalamide (SaliPhe) and compared it with several older v-ATPase inhibitors concanamycin A, bafilomycin A1, (BafA) and archazolid

Tissue specific expression of the splice variants of the mouse vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase a4 subunit [PDF]
We have identified splicing variants of the mouse a4 subunit which have the same open reading frame but have a different 5'-noncoding sequence. Further determination of the 5'-upstream region of the a4 gene in mouse indicated the presence of two first exons (exon 1a and exon 1b) which include the 5'-noncoding sequence of each variant. The mRNAs of both

Molecular Cloning and Expression of Three Isoforms of the 100-kDa a Subunit of the Mouse Vacuolar Proton-translocating ATPase [PDF]
We have identified cDNAs encoding three isoforms (a1, a2, and a3) of the 100-kDa a subunit of the mouse vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase (V-ATPase). The predicted protein sequences of the three isoforms are 838, 856, and 834 amino acids, respectively, and they display approximately 50% identity between isoforms.

Physiological and pharmacological characterizations of the larval Anopheles albimanus rectum support a change in protein distribution and/or function in varying salinities [PDF]
Ion regulation is a biological process crucial to the survival of mosquito larvae and a major organ responsible for this regulation is the rectum. The recta of anopheline larvae are distinct from other subfamilies of mosquitoes in several ways, yet have ...
