Interactions between small heat shock protein subunits and substrate in small heat shock protein-substrate complexes.
Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are dynamic oligomeric proteins that bind unfolding proteins and protect them from irreversible aggregation. This binding results in the formation of sHSP-substrate complexes from which substrate can later be refolded. Interactions between sHSP and substrate in sHSP-substrate complexes and the mechanism by which substrate is transferred to ATP-dependent chapero...
متن کاملHeat Shock Protein 90 in Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the first most common neurodegenerative disease. Despite a large amount of research, the pathogenetic mechanism of AD has not yet been clarified. The two hallmarks of the pathology of AD are the extracellular senile plaques (SPs) of aggregated amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptide and the accumulation of the intracellular microtubule-associated protein tau into fibrillar aggrega...
متن کاملHeat Shock Protein 70 in Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease that caused dementia which has no effective treatment. Growing evidence has demonstrated that AD is a "protein misfolding disorder" that exhibits common features of misfolded, aggregation-prone proteins and selective cell loss in the mature nervous system. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) attracts extensive attention worldwide, ...
متن کاملmolecular, evolution and stratification study of the heat shock protein 70 (hsp70) genes family in cattle
heat shock proteins (hsps), are highly important due to their association with such economically important traits in animals as resistance to temperature shock and mastitis. in the current study, to get a comprehensive information on molecular structure and evolution of the hsp70s, and the available hsp70 sequences of the cattle and other animals taken from ncbi and aligned together. then, nucl...
متن کاملSmall heat shock proteins in protein aggregation and disaggregation
Many factors leading to unfolding and misfolding of proteins eventually result in protein aggregation. Stress imposed by high temperature was one of the first aggregation-inducing factors studied, and remains one of the main models in this field. The cell needs chaperone proteins to control and counteract the aggregation process. Elimination of aggregates can be achieved by solubilization of ag...
