摘要
Vacuolar-type ATPases (V-ATPases) acidify numerous intracellular compartments in all eukaryotic cells and are responsible for extracellular acidification in some specialized cells. V-ATPases are large macromolecular complexes with at least 15 different subunits, some of which are found in multiple copies. The main roles of all V-ATPase subunits have been established except for the e subunit, encoded by the gene VMA9 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the Ac45 subunit, which is not found in the S. cerevisiae enzyme. Here we demonstrate that when the S. cerevisiae V-ATPase is solubilized with the detergent dodecylmaltoside (DDM), Vma9p is removed. We further demonstrate that after Vma9p has been removed by detergent the purified enzyme is still able to perform fully-coupled ATP-dependent proton pumping. This observation shows that Vma9p is not necessary in vitro for this principal activity of the V-ATPase.
