Effect of ganglioside GM3 on the activity and conformation of reconstituted Ca2+-ATPase.

abstract：:The cyoE gene of the Escherichia coli bo-type quinol oxidase operon (cyoABCDE) has been previously shown to encode heme O synthase. To demonstrate a catalytic role of a cyoE homologue (the caaE gene) in the gene cluster for caa3-type cytochrome c oxidase of thermophilic Bacillus PS3, we have carried out genetic comple...
