Abstract
⺠FOF1-ATP synthase comprises two rotary motors with different step sizes. ⺠Coupling of the motors requires reversible elastic deformations. ⺠Single-molecule FRET is used to measure the elastic angular twist. ⺠Up to 108° twisting between c- and ε-subunits is found. ⺠Twisting is suppressed by DCCD during ATP synthesis and ATP hydrolysis.
