title: The abundance of atp gene transcript and of the membrane F1F0-ATPase as a function of the growth pH of alkaliphilic Bacillus firmus OF4.
abstract: Molecular biological and biochemical studies of the F(1)F(0)-ATP synthase of alkaliphilic Bacillus firmus OF4 show that the enzyme used at pH 7.5 and pH 10.5 is a unique product of the atp operon, expressed at the same levels and yielding an enzyme with the same subunit properties and c-subunit/holoenzyme stoichiometry.
