    Abstract:
    The effect and the binding of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) to a soluble native F1-ATPase-inhibitor protein complex (F1-IP) isolated from heart mitochondria was studied. About one mol DCCD bound per mol F1-IP complex; this inhibited its ATPase activity by more than 95%, ever under conditions that led to maximal hydrolysis. Bound DCCD localized to beta-subunits of the F1-IP complex. Cross-linking of the DCCD labeled complex with N-(ethoxy-carbonyl)-2-ethoxydihydroquinoline yielded a protein with a Mr 65,000-67,000 that contained IP as evidenced by its reaction with IP antibodies. No alpha-subunits were detected in this cross-linked product. The Mr 65,000-67,000 protein corresponds to beta-subunits cross-linked with IP (Klein et al, Biochemistry 1980; 19, 2919-2925). However, no DCCD was found in the cross-linked beta-subunit-IP product of labeled native F1-IP. Thus the beta-subunit in contact with IP is distinct from the other two beta-subunits of the enzyme.
