Scientists have solved the structure of mitochondrial ATP synthase, an enzyme that makes ATP, adenosine triphosphate, the major energy source of cells. A team of scientists headed by Rosalind ...

Researchers Alexander Mühleip (Stockholm University) and Alexey Amunts (Stockholm University) solved the structure of a mitochondrial ATP synthase with native lipids. ATP synthase is a universal ...

Sharing a similar structure with ATP synthase suggests a common evolutionary ancestor. This synthase-like ATPase is challenging the origin of cells and proteins themselves. For more than 20 years ...

But researchers have found that Euglena gracilis, a type of single-celled freshwater organism, has an unusual ATP synthase structure, according to a paper published in eLife on November 18. Using cryo ...

ATP synthase: Structure and Function Play ATPases help overcome this repulsion by surrounding the ATP molecule with positive ions that interact with the negative charged ions on the phosphate ...

Naturally, since this process is essential for the functioning of any organism, ATP synthase has been major research subjects for many years. An analysis of the enzyme structure by Masasuke Yoshida ...
