Abstract
Methanococcus voltae contains a membrane-associated ATPase whose structural gene has been sequenced. The gene encodes 565 amino acids and includes a 12-amino-acid N-terminal sequence which is not present in the purified enzyme. On the basis of its amino acid sequence, the M. voltae enzyme is unrelated to previously characterized ATPases.
