Single mutations in the ε subunit from thermophilic Bacillus PS3 generate a high binding affinity site for ATP
The ε subunit from ATP synthases acts as an ATP sensor in the bacterial cell to prevent ATP hydrolysis and thus the waste of ATP under conditions of low ATP concentration. However, the ATP binding affinities from various bacterial organisms differ markedly, over several orders of magnitude. For exam...
