Thus, mitochondrial Hsp70 fulfills a dual function in the formation of ATP synthase: the assembly of the catalytic head and the controlled linkage of the head to the stator.

Currently, ATP Synthase is a drug target for various infectious diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. For instance, bedaquiline (Sirturo) is an FDA approved drug that targets bacterial ATP ...

Solving the structure of ATP synthase Barrier lifted in understanding function in disease and drug mechanisms Date: April 17, 2018 Source: Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science ...

Mechanistically, these muropeptides were shown to enter intestinal-cell mitochondria to interact with the F1 complex of ATP synthase, stabilizing the complex and increasing mitochondrial respiration.

The chemical ATP, adenosine triphosphate, is the fuel that powers all life. Despite ATP's central role, the structure of the enzyme generating ATP, F1Fo-ATP synthase, in mammals, including ...

F1FO-ATP synthase is critical for mitochondrial functions. The deregulation of this enzyme results in dampened mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and activated mitochondrial ...
