Biochemical, Structural and Physiological Characteristics of Vacuolar H+-Pyrophosphatase [PDF]
Proton-translocating inorganic pyrophosphatase (H^+-PPase) actively translocates protons across membranes coupled with the hydrolysis of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi).

Structural properties of vacuolar proton pumps
It is well established that acidification within the collecting duct system is effected by means of a sodium-independent, electrogenic proton translocating ATPase [1].

Identification of a Domain in the Vo Subunit d That Is Critical for Coupling of the Yeast Vacuolar Proton-translocating ATPase [PDF]
Vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase pumps consist of two domains, V(1) and V(o). Subunit d is a component of V(o) located in a central stalk that rotates during catalysis. By generating mutations, we showed that subunit d couples ATP hydrolysis and proton transport.

Bacterial type III secretion drives flagellar biosynthesis and mediates bacterial-eukaryotic interactions. Type III secretion is driven by an ATPase that is homologous to the catalytic subunits of proton-translocating ATPases, such as the FoF1 ATPase ...

Interaction of dibutyltin-3-hydroxyflavone bromide with the 16 kDa proteolipid indicates the disposition of proton translocation sites of the vacuolar ATPase [PDF]
The organotin complex dibutyltin-3-hydroxyflavone bromide [Bu2Sn(of)Br] has been shown to bind to the 16 kDa proteolipid of Nephrops norvegicus, either in the form of the native protein or after heterologous expression in Saccharomyces and assembly into a hybrid vacuolar H+-ATPase.

Biochemical, cytochemical localization and physiological studies on Malpighian tubules of Locusta Migratoria L. [PDF]
Specific inhibitors of protein kinase A (PKA), Rp-cAMP, protein kinase C (PKC), chelerythrine and staurosporine, and protein phosphatase 1 and 2A okadaic acid, inhibited fluid secretion whilst corpora cardiaca (CC) extract and cAMP were found to ...

The Yeast Vacuolar Proton-translocating ATPase Contains a Subunit Homologous to the Manduca sexta and Bovine e Subunits That Is Essential for Function [PDF]
The yeast cwh36Delta mutant was identified in a screen for yeast mutants exhibiting a Vma(-) phenotype suggestive of loss of vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase (V-ATPase) activity. The mutation disrupts two genes, CWH36 and a recently identified open reading frame on the opposite strand, YCL005W-A.

A new type of Na+-driven ATP synthase membrane rotor with a two-carboxylate ion-coupling motif [PDF]
: The anaerobic bacterium Fusobacterium nucleatum uses glutamate decarboxylation to generate a transmembrane gradient of Na+. Here, we demonstrate that this ion-motive force is directly coupled to ATP synthesis, via an F1Fo-ATP synthase with a novel Na ...
