Abstract：
:H+ transporting, reversible F-type ATPases (ATP synthases) and V-type ATPases share major structural features and function by similar mechanisms. Recent structural and genetic experiments provide new insights into the organization of the transmembrane and coupling sectors of the enzymes and the molecular mechanics of coupling H+ transport to ATP.

A pair of ACT domains form an eight-...
