The gliding machinery can be divided into surface and internal structures. The internal structure of the motor is composed of 28 so-called "chains" that are each composed of 17 repeating protein units called "particles." These proteins include homologs of the catalytic α and β subunits of F-ATPase. In this study, we isolated the particles and determined their structures using negative-staining electron microscopy and high-speed atomic force microscopy. The isolated particles were composed of five proteins, MMOB1660 (α-subunit homolog), -1670 (β-subunit homolog), -1630, -1620, and -4530, and showed ATP hydrolyzing activity. The two-dimensional (2D) structure, with dimensions of 35 and 26 nm, showed a dimer of hexameric ring approximately 12 nm in diameter, resembling F-ATPase catalytic (αβ). We isolated the F-like ATPase unit, which is composed of MMOB1660, -1670, and -1630. Furthermore, we isolated the chain and analyzed the three-dimensional (3D) structure, showing that dimers of mushroom-like structures resembling F-ATPase were connected and aligned along the dimer axis at 31-nm intervals. An atomic model of F-ATPase catalytic (αβ) from PS3 was successfully fitted to each hexameric ring of the mushroom-like structure. These results suggest that the motor for gliding shares an evolutionary origin with F-ATPase. Based on the obtained structure, we propose possible force transmission processes in the gliding mechanism. FF-ATPase, a rotary ATPase, is widespread in the membranes of mitochondria, chloroplasts, and bacteria and converts ATP energy with a proton motive force across the membrane by its physical rotation. Homologous protein complexes play roles in ion and protein transport. Mycoplasma mobile, a pathogenic bacterium, was recently suggested to have a special motility system evolutionarily derived from F-ATPase. The present study isolated the protein complex from cells and supported this conclusion by clarifying the detailed structures containing common and novel features as F-ATPase relatives. |
