Amino acid sequence of the oligomycin sensitivity‐conferring protein (OSCP) of beef‐heart mitochondria and its homology with the δ‐subunit of the F1‐ATPase of Escherichia coli

Abstract: The complete amino acid sequence of the oligomycin sensitivity-conferring protein (OSCP) of beef-heart mitochondria is reported. The protein contains 190 amino acids and has a molecular mass of 20967. Its structure is characterized by a concentration of charged amino acids in the two terminal segments (N l-77 and C 128-190) of the protein, whereas its central region is more hydrophobic. The earlier reported homology of the protein with the d-subunit of E. coli F1, based on the terminal amino acid sequences of … Show more

“…Comparison of the hydrophobic domain of OSCP with the homologous region in the polypeptide chain of the E. coli &subunit [21-231: shows that the latter is more hydrophilic (60% hydrophobicity, 5 charged residues instead of 2 in OSCP). (More recent analysis shows that a glutamic acid residue is located in position 15 of the OSCP sequence and not glutamine as reported earlier [13].) The hydrophobic domain in the Nterminal sequence of OSCP may explain why this polypeptide remains bound to the membrane sector, while the corresponding subunit in the E. coli ATPase, i.e., the S-subunit, accompanies Fr when the latter is removed from the membrane.…”

“…These preparations had identical N termini indicating cleavage at the carboxy terminus. The sequence found for the first 13 amino acids was in good accordance with the known sequences of E. coli 6 [34,35] and of beef-heart OSCP, the counterpart of 6 in mitochondria [36], as shown in the following alignment.…”

“…The mitochondrial F, subunits are subunit 6, b, OSCP, d , F,, A6L (subunit 8 in yeast) and c (subunit 9 in yeast), with molecular masses of 24.8, 24.7, 21, 18.6, 9, 8 and 7.4 kDa, respectively (Knowles et al, 1971 ;Ovchinnikov et al, 1984;Walker et al, 1987;Fillingame, 1990). The molecular mass of bovine IF, is 9.6 kDa (Frangione et al, 1981).…”
