Molecular 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...
متن کاملDivergent substrate-binding mechanisms reveal an evolutionary specialization of eukaryotic prefoldin compared to its archaeal counterpart.
Prefoldin (PFD) is a molecular chaperone that stabilizes and then delivers unfolded proteins to a chaperonin for facilitated folding. The PFD hexamer has undergone an evolutionary change in subunit composition, from two PFDalpha and four PFDbeta subunits in archaea to six different subunits (two alpha-like and four beta-like subunits) in eukaryotes. Here, we show by electron microscopy that PFD...

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
15 صفحه اولPreferential substrate binding orientation by the molecular chaperone HscA.
HscA, a specialized bacterial hsp70-class chaperone, interacts with the iron-sulfur cluster assembly protein IscU by recognizing a conserved LPPVK sequence motif at positions 99-103. We have used a site-directed fluorescence labeling and quenching strategy to determine whether HscA binds to IscU in a preferred orientation. HscA was selectively labeled on opposite sides of the substrate binding ...
