title: Interaction between the soluble F1 ATPase and its naturally occurring inhibitor protein. Studies using hydrophilic high-performance liquid chromatography and immunoelectron microscopy.
abstract: Binding of the isolated ATPase (F1) to its naturally occurring inhibitor protein was studied by two novel, independent techniques. High-pressure gel permeation chromatography revealed one tight binding site (Kd = 0.46 microM) for the inhibitor on F1, and a number of weak, non-specific sites. Use of an antibody directed against a non-binding region of the inhibitor protein demonstrated the formation of inhibitor/F1/immunoglobulin G complexes of 1:1:1 and 2:2:1 stoichiometry, but not of the putatively more stable cyclic 4:2:2 complexes. It was concluded that, despite the presence of three beta-subunits, only one site per F1 molecule is available for binding its inhibitor protein.
