Hj. Schafer et al., PHOTOAFFINITY CROSS-LINKING OF F(1)ATPASE FROM SPINACH-CHLOROPLASTS BY 3'-ARYLAZIDO-BETA-ALANYL-8-AZIDO ATP, FEBS letters, 340(3), 1994, pp. 265-268
UV irradiation of the ATPase (CF1) from spinach chloroplasts in the pr
esence of 3'-arylazido-beta-alanyl-8-azido ATP (8,3'-DiN(3)ATP) result
s in a nucleotide-dependent inactivation of the enzyme and in a nucleo
tide-dependent formation of alpha-beta cross-links. The results demons
trate an interfacial localization of the nucleotide binding sites on C
F1.
