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 کاملPrefoldin, a Chaperone that Delivers Unfolded Proteins to Cytosolic Chaperonin
We describe the discovery of a heterohexameric chaperone protein, prefoldin, based on its ability to capture unfolded actin. Prefoldin binds specifically to cytosolic chaperonin (c-cpn) and transfers target proteins to it. Deletion of the gene encoding a prefoldin subunit in S. cerevisiae results in a phenotype similar to those found when c-cpn is mutated, namely impaired functions of the actin...
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 کاملMolecular clamp mechanism of substrate binding by hydrophobic coiled-coil residues of the archaeal chaperone prefoldin.
Prefoldin (PFD) is a jellyfish-shaped molecular chaperone that has been proposed to play a general role in de novo protein folding in archaea and is known to assist the biogenesis of actins, tubulins, and potentially other proteins in eukaryotes. Using point mutants, chimeras, and intradomain swap variants, we show that the six coiled-coil tentacles of archaeal PFD act in concert to bind and st...
متن کاملStructure of the Molecular Chaperone Prefoldin Unique Interaction of Multiple Coiled Coil Tentacles with Unfolded Proteins
Prefoldin (GimC) is a hexameric molecular chaperone complex built from two related classes of subunits and present in all eukaryotes and archaea. Prefoldin interacts with nascent polypeptide chains and, in vitro, can functionally substitute for the Hsp70 chaperone system in stabilizing non-native proteins for subsequent folding in the central cavity of a chaperonin. Here, we present the crystal...
