The interaction of lipids with subunit c from F1F0 ATP synthase is studied by biophysical methods. Subunit c from both Escherichia coli and Streptococcus pneumoniae interacts and copurifies with cardiolipin. Solid state NMR data on oligomeric rings of F0 show that the cardiolipin interacts with the c subunit in membrane bilayers. These studies offer strong support for the hypothesis that F0 has specific interactions with cardiolipin.
采用生物物理方法研究了脂质与F1F0 ATP合酶亚基c的相互作用。来自大肠杆菌和肺炎链球菌的亚基c均能与心磷脂相互作用并共同纯化。关于F0寡聚环的固态核磁共振数据表明,心磷脂在膜双层中与c亚基相互作用。这些研究为F0与心磷脂存在特异性相互作用这一假说提供了有力支持。
