Itoh and colleagues used single-molecule experiments to show that one example of this class of proteins functions as a rotary motor.
Itoh and colleagues used single-molecule experiments to show that one example of this class of proteins functions as a rotary motor. Proteins of this class usually contain a Walker box which is essential to their activity. A well-known example is the F0F1 (eff-zero-eff-one) variety that, contrary to its name, generates rather than hydrolyzes its namesake molecule, using energy from the proton gradient of the mitochondrial inner space. For ten points, identify this class of proteins that catalyze the hydrolysis of a namesake, very energetic nucleotide.
