OSTI ID:6998626
Membrane vesicles and the F/sub 1/-Atpase from Clostridium thermoaceticum were examined by electron microscopy. F/sub 1/-ATPase particles projecting from the vesicles have a diameter of 10 to 12 nm. The F/sub 1/-ATPase has an..cap alpha../sub 3/..beta../sub 3/..gamma..delta structure. The ..cap alpha.. and ..beta.. subunits are most likely arranged in an alternating sequence around a central protein mass consisting of the ..gamma.. and delta subunits.
