| Description | Transmembrane ATPases are membrane-bound enzyme complexes/ion transporters that use ATP hydrolysis to drive the transport of protons across a membrane. Some transmembrane ATPases also work in reverse, harnessing the energy from a proton gradient, using the flux of ions across the membrane via the ATPase proton channel to drive the synthesis of ATP.This group of proteins include the alpha and beta subunits found in the F1, V1, and A1 complexes of F-, V- and A-ATPases, respectively (sometimes called the A and B subunits in V- and A-ATPases), as well as Type 3 secretion system ATPase and Flagellum-specific ATP synthase.This entry represents a 10 amino acid signature. The signature pattern contains two conserved serines. The first serine seems to be important for catalysis - in the ATPase alpha-chain at least - as its mutagenesis causes catalytic impairment. | Name | ATPase, alpha/beta subunit, nucleotide-binding domain, active site |
