Conformational changes in sigma 54 (sigma (54)) and sigma (54)-holoenzyme depend on nucleotide hydrolysis by an activator. We now show that sigma (54) and its holoenzyme bind to the central ATP-hydrolyzing domains of the transcriptional activators PspF and NifA in the presence of ADP-aluminum fluoride, an analog of ATP in the transition state for hydrolysis. Direct binding of sigma (54) Region I to activator in the presence of ADP-aluminum fluoride was shown and inferred from in vivo suppression genetics. Energy transduction appears to occur through activator contacts to sigma (54) Region I. ADP-aluminum fluoride-dependent interactions and consideration of other AAA+ proteins provide insight into activator mechanochemical action.
