Subunit distribution of the sulfhydryl groups of the F1 adenosine triphosphatase of Salmonella typhimurium.

The number of sulfhydryl groups in each subunit of the F1 adenosine triphosphatase of Salmonella typhimurium was measured by the method of T. E. Creighton [1980, Nature (London) 284, 487-489]. The alpha, beta, gamma, delta and epsilon subunits of this enzyme contained 4, 1, 2, 2, and 0 sulfhydryl groups per molecule of subunit, respectively.
