Synthesis of adenosine triphosphate ATP, the 'biological energy currency', is accomplished by FoF1-ATP synthase. In the plasma membrane of Escherichia coli, proton-driven rotation of a ring of 10 c subunits in the F-o motor powers catalysis in the F-1 motor. Although F-1 uses 120 degrees stepping during ATP synthesis, models of F-o predict either an incremental rotation of c subunits in 36 degrees steps or larger step sizes comprising several fast substeps. Using single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer, we provide the first experimental determination of a 36 degrees sequential stepping mode of the c-ring during ATP synthesis.
