Mutants of ECF1-ATPase were generated, containing cysteine residues in one or more of the following positions: alphaSer-411, betaGlu-381, and epsilonSer-108, after which disulfide bridges could be created by CuCl2 induced oxidation in high yield between alpha and epsilon, beta and epsilon, alpha and gamma, beta and gamma (endogenous Cys-87), and alpha and beta. All of these cross-links lead to inhibition of ATP hydrolysis activity. In the two double mutants, containing a cysteine in epsilonSer-108 along with either the DELSEED region of beta (Glu-381) or the homologous region in alpha (Ser-411), there was a clear nucleotide dependence of the cross-link formation with the epsilon subunit. In betaE381C/epsilonS108C the beta-epsilon cross-link was obtained preferentially when Mg2+ and ADP + Pi (addition of MgCl2 + ATP) was present, while the alpha-epsilon cross-link product was strongly favored in the alphaS411C/epsilonS108C mutant in the Mg2+ ATP state (addition of MgCl2 + 5'-adenylyl-beta,gamma-imidodiphosphate). In the triple mutant alphaS411C/betaE381C/epsilonS108C, the epsilon subunit bound to the beta subunit in Mg2+-ADP and to the alpha subunit in Mg2+-ATP, indicating a significant movement of this subunit. The gamma subunit cross-linked to the beta subunit in higher yield in Mg2+-ATP than in Mg2+-ADP, and when possible, i.e. in the triple mutant, always preferred the interaction with the beta over the alpha subunit.
