摘要
ATP synthase synthesizes ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate using a unique rotary mechanism whereby two subcomplexes move relative to each other, powered by a proton or sodium gradient. The non-rotating parts of the machinery are held together by the 'stator stalk'. The recent resolution of the structure of a major portion of the stator stalk of mitochondrial ATP synthase represents an important step towards a structural model for the ATP synthase holoenzyme.
