The uniqueness of subunit α of mycobacterial F-ATP synthases: An evolutionary variant for niche adaptation

The F1F0 -ATP (F-ATP) synthase is essential for growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB). In addition to their synthase function most F-ATP synthases possess an ATP-hydrolase activity, which is coupled to proton-pumping activity. However, the mycobacterial enzym...
