Abstract
Considerable progress has been made in recent years in our understanding of the phosphorylating apparatus in mitochondria, chloroplasts, and bacteria. It has become clear that the structure and the function of the ATP synthesizing apparatus in these widely divergent organisms is similar if not virtually identical. The subunit composition of F1, its molecular architecture, the location and function of substrate binding sites, as well as putative control sites, understanding of the component parts of the oligomycin-sensitive ATPase complex, and the role of these components in the function of the complex all are under active investigation in many laboratories. The developing information and the new insights provided have begun to permit experimental approaches, at the molecular level, to the mode of action of the ATPase in electron-transport-coupled ATP synthesis.Keywords
