Protein Family Models

The atp operon of alkaliphilic Bacillus pseudofirmus OF4, as in most prokaryotes, contains the eight structural genes for the F-ATPase (ATP synthase), which are preceded by an atpI gene that encodes a membrane protein with 2 TMSs. A tenth gene, atpZ, has been found in this operon, which is upstream of and overlapping with atpI. AtpI is a Ca2+/Mg2+ transporter [3]. [1]. 6301339.
