ATP-Driven Molecular Chaperone Machines
This review is focused on the mechanisms by which ATP binding and hydrolysis drive chaperone machines assisting protein folding and unfolding. A survey of the key, general chaperone systems Hsp70 and Hsp90, and the unfoldase Hsp100 is followed by a focus on the Hsp60 chaperonin machine which is understood in most detail. Cryo-electron microscopy analysis of the E. coli Hsp60 GroEL reveals inter...
متن کاملEditorial: The HSP70 Molecular Chaperone Machines
The HSP70s belong to a small family of highly conserved ∼70 kDa enzymes that can use the energy of ATP-hydrolysis to modify the structure, and consequently the function, of specific native proteins, and to unfold, solubilize, and thereby reduce the cellular concentration of harmful misfolded proteins (Finka et al., 2016). Particular HSP70s are expressed constitutively in the cytosol of bacteria...
متن کاملChromatin remodeling by ATP-dependent molecular machines.
The eukaryotic genome is packaged into a periodic nucleoprotein structure termed chromatin. The repeating unit of chromatin, the nucleosome, consists of DNA that is wound nearly two times around an octamer of histone proteins. To facilitate DNA-directed processes in chromatin, it is often necessary to rearrange or to mobilize the nucleosomes. This remodeling of the nucleosomes is achieved by th...
متن کاملArtificial molecular machines driven by light.
The bottom-up construction and operation of machines and motors of molecular size is a topic of great interest in nanoscience, and a fascinating challenge of nanotechnology. The problem of the energy supply to make molecular machines work is of the greatest importance. Research in the last ten years has demonstrated that light energy can be used to power artificial nanomachines by exploiting ph...
متن کاملChaperone-driven proteasome assembly.
Assembly of the 34-subunit, 2.5 MDa 26S proteasome is a carefully choreographed intricate process. It starts with formation of a seven-membered alpha-ring that serves as a template for assembly of the complementary beta-ring-forming 'half-proteasomes'. Dimerization results in a latent 20S core particle that can serve further as a platform for 19S regulatory particle attachment and formation of ...
