TY - JOUR A1 - Sebald, Walter A1 - Machleidt, Werner A1 - Wachter, Elmar T1 - N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide binds specifically to a single glutamyl residue of the proteolipid subunit of the mitochondrial adenosinetriphosphatases from Neurospora crassa and Saccharomyces cerevisiae N2 - T~e N,N'-dicrclohexylcarbodiimide-binding proteolipid subumt of the mitochondrial adenosinetriphosphatases (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) of Neurosporacrassa and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were purified from mitochondria incubated with the radioactively labeled inhibitor. The specifically labeled subunit was cleaved with cyanogen bromide and N-bromosuccinimide, and the resultant fragments were separated by gel chromatography in the presence of 80% (vol/vol) formic acid. The N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide label was recovered in each organism exclusively in a 17-residue fragment. Further analysis by automated solid-phase Edman degrada.ti.on revealed tha~ the bound label was present at only one positIOn, correspondmg to a glutamyl residue. The NN'~ icyc~ohexyl~a~bodiiJ?1~de-'!l0dified glutamyl residue is the ~nly Id~ntIcal aCidic posItIon m both proteins and occurs in the middle of a hydrophobic sequence of about 25 residues.
