摘要
The G subunit of V-ATPases is a soluble subunit that shows homology with the b subunit of F-ATPases and may be part of the "stator'' stalk connecting the peripheral V-1 and membrane V-0 sectors. When the N-terminal half of the G subunit is modeled as an or helix, most of the conserved residues fall on one face of the helix (Hunt, I. E., and Bowman, B. J. (1997) J. Bioenerg. Biomembr. 29, 533-540). We probed the function of this region by site-directed mutagenesis of the yeast VMA10 gene. Stable Gr subunits were produced in the presence of Y46A and K55A mutations, but subunit E was destabilized, resulting in loss of the V-ATPase assembly. Mutations E14A and K50A allowed wild-type growth and assembly of V-ATPase complexes, but the complexes formed were unstable. Mutations R25A and R25L stabilized V-ATPase complexes relative to wild-type and partially inhibited disassembly of V, from V, in response to glucose deprivation even though the mutant enzymes were fully active. A 2-amino acid deletion in the middle of the predicted N-terminal helix (Delta Q29D30) allowed assembly of a functional V-ATPase. The results indicate that, although the N-terminal half of the G subunit is essential for V-ATPase activity, either this region is not a rigid helix or the presence of a continuous, conserved face of the helix is not essential.
