Abstract
Adenylate kinase-like activity and phosphotransferase-like activity from F1-ATPase of Escherichia coli was revealed by 31P NMR spectroscopy. Incubation of F1-ATPase with ADP in the presence of Mg2+ shows the appearance of 31P resonances from AMP and Pi, suggesting generation of AMP and ATP by adenylate kinase-like activity and the subsequent hydrolysis to Pi. Incubation of F1-ATPase with ADP in the presence of methanol shows additional peak from methyl phosphate, suggesting phosphotransferase-like activity of F1-ATPase. Both adenylate kinase-like activity and phosphotransferase-like activity has not been reported from F1-ATPase of Escherichia coli. 31P NMR could be a valuable tool for the investigation of phosphorous related enzyme.
