Abstract: The ATP synthase enzyme catalyses the production of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. It does so using a clever internal rotary mechanism, the latest insight into which is now reported. Using sophisticated NMR and chemical probes, one group has uncovered structural changes in a critical subunit that could drive the rotation.
