摘要
The H+-ATPase from spinach chloroplasts was isolated and purified, Two-dimensional crystals were obtained from the protein/lipid/detergent micelles by treatment with phospholipase and simultaneous removal of detergent and fatty acids by Biobeads. The resulting two-dimensionally ordered arrays were investigated by electron cryomicroscopy, The ordered arrays showed top view projections of CF0F1. The images were analysed by correlation averaging, In this view CF0F1 has dimensions of 11.4 x 9 am. The average view shows a strongly asymmetric molecule, in contrast to the rather hexagonal features of CF1, previously analyzed from two-dimensional arrays. It is concluded that this is due either to an asymmetric structure and positioning of CP0 relative to CF1 or to a rearrangement of CF1 subunits induced by binding of CF0 to CP1.
