V-ATPases are very complex multi-subunit enzymes which function as proton-pumping rotary nanomotors. The rotary and coupling subunit F (F1-94) was crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. The native crystals diffracted to a resolution of 2.64 Å and belonged to space group C2221, wit...
