  • Descrição: F‐ATP synthases convert the electrochemical energy of the H+ gradient into the chemical energy of ATP with remarkable efficiency. Mitochondrial F‐ATP synthases can also undergo a Ca2+‐dependent transformation to form channels with properties matching those of the permeability transition pore (PTP), a key player in cell death. The Ca2+ binding site and the mechanism(s) through which Ca2+ can transform the energy‐conserving enzyme into a dissipative structure promoting cell death remain unknown. Through in vitro, in vivo and in silico studies we (i) pinpoint the “Ca2+‐trigger site” of the PTP to the catalytic site of the F‐ATP synthase β subunit and (ii) define a conformational change that propagates from the catalytic site through OSCP and the lateral stalk to the inner membrane. T163S mutants of the β subunit, which show a selective decrease in Ca2+‐ATP hydrolysis, confer resistance to Ca2+‐induced, PTP‐dependent death in cells and developing zebrafish embryos. These findings are a major advance in the molecular definition of the transition of F‐ATP synthase to a channel and of its role in cell death. Synopsis In response to Ca2+ ions mitochondria can undergo a permeability transition (PT). This study provides evidence that Ca2+‐binding to the catalytic β subunit of F1F0 ATPase induces a conformational change that is transduced to the OSCP subunit and the lateral stalk to induce pore opening. Onset of the PT depends on Ca2+ binding to T163 of F‐ATP synthase β subunit, which in physiological catalysis coordinates Mg2+. Ca2+ binding to the catalytic site may induce a conformational change that is transmitted to the peripheral stalk through OSCP, leading to the PT. A T163S mutation increases Mg2+‐ATPase and inhibits Ca2+‐ATPase activity, prevents PT‐dependent HeLa cells death and lowers incidence of apoptosis in developing zebrafish embryos. In response to Ca2+ ions mitochondria can undergo a permeability transition (PT). This study provides evidence that Ca2+‐binding to the catalytic β subunit of F1F0 ATPase induces a conformational change that triggers pore opening.
