The membrane domain of rotary ATPases (Fo/Vo/Ao) contains a membrane-embedded rotor ring which rotates against an adjacent cation channel-forming subunit during catalysis. The mechanism that allows stabilization of the highly mobile and yet tightly connected domains during operation while not impeding rotation is unknown. Remarkably, all known ATPase rotor rings are filled by lipids. In the crystal structure of the rotor ring of a V-ATPase from Enterococcus hirae the ring filling lipids form a proper membrane that is lower with respect to the embedding membrane surrounding both subunits. I propose first, that a vertical shift between lumenal lipids and embedding outside membrane is a general feature of rotor rings and second that it leads to a radial potential fall-off between rotor ring and cation channel, creating attractive forces that impact rotor-stator interaction in Fo/Vo/Ao during rotation.
