Kinetics and binding sites for interaction of the prefoldin with a group II chaperonin: contiguous non-native substrate and chaperonin binding sites in the archaeal prefoldin.
Prefoldin is a jellyfish-shaped hexameric co-chaperone of the group II chaperonins. It captures a protein folding intermediate and transfers it to a group II chaperonin for completion of folding. The manner in which prefoldin interacts with its substrates and cooperates with the chaperonin is poorly understood. In this study, we have examined the interaction between a prefoldin and a chaperonin...
متن کاملMtGimC, a novel archaeal chaperone related to the eukaryotic chaperonin cofactor GimC/prefoldin.
Group II chaperonins in the eukaryotic and archaeal cytosol assist in protein folding independently of the GroES-like cofactors of eubacterial group I chaperonins. Recently, the eukaryotic chaperonin was shown to cooperate with the hetero-oligomeric protein complex GimC (prefoldin) in folding actin and tubulins. Here we report the characterization of the first archaeal homologue of GimC, from M...
متن کاملStructure of the Substrate Binding Domain of the Thermosome, an Archaeal Group II Chaperonin
The crystal structure of the substrate binding domain of the thermosome, the archaeal group II chaperonin, has been determined at 2.3 A resolution. The core resembles the apical domain of GroEL but lacks the hydrophobic residues implied in binding of substrates to group I chaperonins. Rather, a large hydrophobic surface patch is found in a novel helix-turn-helix motif, which is characteristic o...
متن کاملSingle-Molecule Fluorescence Polarization Study of Conformational Change in Archaeal Group II Chaperonin
Group II chaperonins found in archaea and in eukaryotic cytosol mediate protein folding without a GroES-like cofactor. The function of the cofactor is substituted by the helical protrusion at the tip of the apical domain, which forms a built-in lid on the central cavity. Although many studies on the change in lid conformation coupled to the binding and hydrolysis of nucleotides have been conduc...
متن کاملChaperonin filaments: the archaeal cytoskeleton?
Chaperonins are high molecular mass double-ring structures composed of 60-kDa protein subunits. In the hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus shibatae the two chaperonin proteins represent approximately 4% of its total protein and have a combined intracellular concentration of >30 mg/ml. At concentrations >/= 0.5 mg/ml purified chaperonins form filaments in the presence of Mg2+ and nucleotides. ...
