| Abstract | The role of subunit a in promoting proton translocation and rotary motion in the Escherichia coli F1Fo ATP synthase is poorly understood. In the membrane-bound Fo sector of the enzyme, H+ binding and release occur at Asp-61 in the middle of the second transmembrane helix (TMH) of subunit c. Protons are thought to reach Asp-61 at the center of the membrane via aqueous channels formed at least in part by one or more of the five TMHs of subunit a. Aqueous access pathways have previously been mapped to surfaces of aTMH4. Here we have substituted Cys into the second and fifth TMHs of subunit a and carried out chemical modification with Ag+ and N-ethylmaleimide to define the aqueous accessibility of residues along these helices. Access to cAsp-61 at the center of the membrane may be mediated in part by Ag+-sensitive residues 248, 249, 251, and 252 in aTMH5. From the periplasmic surface, aqueous access to cAsp-61 may be mediated by silver-sensitive residues 115, 116, 119, 120, 122, and 126 in aTMH2. The Ag+-sensitive residues in TMH2, -4, and -5 form a continuum extending from the periplasmic to the cytoplasmic side of the membrane. In an arrangement of helices supported by second-site revertant and crosslinking analyses, these residues cluster at the interior of a four-helix bundle formed by TMH2–5. The aqueous access pathways at the interior of subunit a may be gated by a swiveling of helices in this bundle, alternately exposing cytoplasmic and periplasmic half channels to cAsp-61 during the H+ transport cycle. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
