A method has been developed for exploring the quaternary fine structure of oligomeric proteins by crosslinking studies and applied to bovine heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase. The F1 was first labeled with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitro-[14C]benzene, subsequently reduced with sodium hydrosulfite, and finally cross-linked with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide. Gel electrophoresis in the chemically modified protein in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and mercaptoethanol showed the existence of a 105-115-kilodalton molecular species in addition to the five monomeric subunits of F1. This cross-linked species could be alpha 2, alpha beta, or beta 2. Isolation of the cross-linked species and titration with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) showed the absence of sulfhydryl group. Therefore, the cross-linked species must be the dimer beta 2. After digestion of the purified beta 2 with pepsin, a single radioactive peptide was isolated. Determination of the amino acid sequence of this peptide and comparison of its radioactivity with the total radioactivity on beta-subunits show that it was formed exclusively by cross-linking Lys162 of one beta-subunit with Glu199 of another beta-subunit. The observation that two beta-subunits can be cross-linked by a rigid phenylenediamine bridge of 5.7- or 4.3-A length is difficult to reconcile with the widely assumed structure of F1 with the alpha- and beta-subunits occupying alternate corners of a planar hexagon, but is consistent with the structure in which a triangular set of three beta-subunits sits above a triangular set of three alpha-subunits in a staggered conformation.
