Popis: | The mitochondrial F-ATP synthase is responsible for coupling the transmembrane proton gradient, generated through the inner membrane by the electron transport chain, to the synthesis of ATP. This enzyme shares a basic architecture with the prokaryotic and chloroplast ones, since it is composed of a catalytic head (F1), located in the mitochondrial matrix, a membrane-bound part (FO), together with a central and a peripheral stalk. In this review we compare the structural and functional properties of F-ATP synthase in plant mitochondria with those of yeast and mammals. We also present the physiological impact of the alteration of F-ATP synthase in plants, with a special regard to its involvement in cytoplasmic male sterility. Furthermore, we show the involvement of this enzyme in plant stress responses. Finally, we discuss the role of F-ATP synthase in shaping the curvature of the mitochondrial inner membrane and in permeability transition pore formation. |
