Incorporation of adenine nucleotide transporter, Ant1p, into proteoliposomes facilitates ATP translocation and activation of encapsulated luciferase
We prepared functional luciferase and membrane-integrated form of adenine nucleotide transporter (Ant1p) with a wheat germ cell-free system. The reconstituted Ant1p showed transport activity of ATP/AMP exchange across the membrane. Here we demonstrate that activity of the luciferase entrapped in the Ant1p-proteoliposomes is controllable by the external supply of ATP. (C) 2014, The Society for Biotechnology, Japan.
