Abstract

The ATPase complex of chloroplasts (H+-ATPase, ATP-synthase) carries out synthesis (hydrolysis) of ATP coupled with transmembrane transport of hydrogen ions. This complex consists of a hydrophytic catalytic part called coupling factor CF1, and a hydrophobic part, CF0, the function of which is to translocate protons towards CF1. CF1 can bind as many as six nucleotide molecules /1/. After CF1 precipitation by ammonium sulfate with subsequent gel filtration, the enzyme retains about 1 mol of tightly bound nucleotides consisting mainly of ADP /2/.
