Chaperone-client interactions: Non-specificity engenders multifunctionality.
Here, we provide an overview of the different mechanisms whereby three different chaperones, Spy, Hsp70, and Hsp60, interact with folding proteins, and we discuss how these chaperones may guide the folding process. Available evidence suggests that even a single chaperone can use many mechanisms to aid in protein folding, most likely due to the need for most chaperones to bind clients promiscuou...
متن کاملA molecular mechanism of chaperone-client recognition
Molecular chaperones are essential in aiding client proteins to fold into their native structure and in maintaining cellular protein homeostasis. However, mechanistic aspects of chaperone function are still not well understood at the atomic level. We use nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to elucidate the mechanism underlying client recognition by the adenosine triphosphate-independent cha...
متن کاملChaperone functional specificity promotes yeast prion diversity
While prions are protein-based infectious agents, yeast prions are protein-based genetic elements of the baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae [1]. Most yeast prions are amyloid protein aggregates that spread during mitosis through the cytosolic transmission of small, self-templating pieces called propagons. Propagons continue to recruit free protein monomers, perpetuating the prion phenotype ...
متن کاملRole of Molecular Interactions and Oligomerization in Chaperone Activity of Recombinant Acr from Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Background: The chaperone activity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Acr is an important function that helps to prevent misfolding of protein substrates inside the host, especially in conditions of hypoxia. Objectives: The aim of this study was to establish the correlation of structure and function of recombinant Acr proteins both before and after ge...
متن کاملStructural characterization of clusterin-chaperone client protein complexes.
Clusterin (CLU) is a potent extracellular chaperone that inhibits protein aggregation and precipitation otherwise caused by physical or chemical stresses (e.g. heat, reduction). This action involves CLU forming soluble high molecular weight (HMW) complexes with the client protein. Other than their unquantified large size, the physical characteristics of these complexes were previously unknown. ...
