In the gliding bacterium, , a dimeric F-like ATPase forms a chain structure within the cell, which is proposed to drive the gliding motility. However, the mechanisms of force generation and transmission remain unclear. We determined the electron cryomicroscopy (cryo-EM) structure of the dimeric F-like ATPase complex. The structure revealed an assembly distinct from those of dimeric FF-ATPases. The F-like ATPase unit associated by two subunits GliD and GliE was named G-ATPase as an R domain of rotary ATPases. G-β subunit, a homolog of the F-ATPase catalytic subunit, exhibited a specific N-terminal region that incorporates the glycolytic enzyme, phosphoglycerate kinase into the complex. Structural features of the ATPase displayed strong similarities to F-ATPase, suggesting a rotation based on the rotary catalytic mechanism. Overall, the cryo-EM structure provides insights into the mechanism through which G-ATPase drives the gliding motility. |
