S. A. (1989) J. Biol. Chem 264, 2640-2644]. To test this model for F0 assembly, we purified F0 sectors synthesized in the presence and absence of F1 subunits and measured the abilities of these different preparations to bind purified F1 ATPase and to conduct protons when reconstituted into liposomes. The results of these studies demonstrated significant differences in proton-conducting abilities of the different F0 preparations. F0 sectors synthesized in the presence of F1 subunits were more permeable to protons than those synthesized in the absence of F1 subunits. |
