Understanding ATP synthase regulation
EMSL Project ID
50619
Abstract
We aim to solve the cryo-EM structure of E. coli ATP synthase in its active form to high resolution utilising the PNCC Titan Krios equipped with a K2 camera. This research will be an extension of our previous work describing the same enzyme in an inhibited form (Sobti et al 2016). The knowledge gained here will further our fundamental understanding of the function and regulation of this essential biological molecule, as well as potentially leading to future antimicrobial development.
