Vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase (holoATPase and free membrane sector) was isolated from bovine chromaffin granules by blue native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A 5-fold excess of membrane sector over holoenzyme was determined in isolated chromaffin granule membranes. M9.2, a novel extremely hydrophobic 9.2-kDa protein comprising 80 amino acids, was detected in the membrane sector. It shows sequence and structural similarity to Vma21p, a yeast protein required for assembly of vacuolar ATPase. A second membrane sector-associated protein (M8-9) was identified and characterized by amino-terminal protein sequencing.
