Existence of stoichiometric amounts of an intrinsic ATPase inhibitor and two stabilizing factors with mitochondrial ATP synthase in yeast.
Two proteinaceous factors, 15K and 9K proteins, which acted together to stabilize the inactivated yeast F1F0-ATPase-inhibitor complex [Hashimoto, T., et al. (1984) J. Biochem. 95, 131-136] were hardly distinguishable from the sigma and epsilon subunits, respectively, of yeast F1-ATPase by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. However, they were clearly distinguishable from these subunits by analyses of the sequences at their amino terminals and by immunoblotting combined with SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The two stabilizing factors and an ATPase inhibitor existed in mitochondria in equimolar ratios to F1-ATPase. These three protein factors were not present in purified F1-ATPase or in F1F0-ATPase preparations, but remained in the mitochondrial membranes after extraction of F1F0-ATPase with Triton X-100. These observations strongly suggest that the two stabilizing factors and the ATPase inhibitor form a regulatory substructure of mitochondrial ATP synthase, in addition to the F1 and F0 subunits.
