【 摘 要 】

The α and β subunits of tobacco chloroplast proton-translocating ATPase show 25% sequence homology. When these subunits from tobacco chloroplast and Escherichia coli are compared, 66 amino acid residues are identical and the majority of them are localized in 4 regions. Some nucleotide-binding enzymes contain sequences homologous to the 4 regions, suggesting that these regions have common functions in catalysis.
