Reactive cysteines of the 90-kDa heat shock protein, Hsp90.
The 90-kDa heat shock protein (Hsp90) is the most abundant molecular chaperone of the eukaryotic cytoplasm. Its cysteine groups participate in the interactions of Hsp90 with the heme-regulated eIF-2alpha kinase and molybdate, a stabilizer of Hsp90-protein complexes. In our present studies we investigated the reactivity of the sulfhydryl groups of Hsp90. Our data indicate that Hsp90 as well as t...
متن کاملThe production of molecular clones of Toxoplasma gondii-derived heat shock protein 70 kDa
Toxoplasmosis is a common and widespread infection in humans and many other species of warm–blooded animals. Toxoplasma gondii-derived heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) may play an important role in the virulence of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii). In the present study, T. gondii Hsp70 was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from the DNA of the T. gondiitachyzoite RH strain through the use o...
متن کاملTranslational regulation by the interferon-induced double-stranded-RNA-activated 68-kDa protein kinase.
Activation of the interferon-inducible 68-kDa protein kinase (referred to as P68) by double-stranded RNA catalyzes phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of eukaryotic protein synthesis initiation factor 2. We have analyzed the transient expression of mutant and wild-type kinase molecules in transfected COS cells to examine the effects of the kinase on gene expression in the absence of other inte...
متن کاملInteraction of the human DnaJ homologue, HSJ1b with the 90 kDa heat shock protein, Hsp90.
The 90 kDa heat shock protein (Hsp90) is a major cytoplasmic molecular chaperone associating with numerous other proteins. Both genetic and in vitro refolding experiments using reticulocyte lysate have suggested a functional interaction of Hsp90 with yeast human homologues of E. coli DnaJ. Here we present direct evidence using surface plasmon resonance that Hsp90 and the human DnaJ homologue, H...
متن کاملCharacterization of the AMP-activated protein kinase kinase from rat liver and identification of threonine 172 as the major site at which it phosphorylates AMP-activated protein kinase.
We have developed a sensitive assay for the AMP-activated protein kinase kinase, the upstream component in the AMP-activated protein kinase cascade. Phosphorylation and activation of the downstream kinase by the upstream kinase absolutely requires AMP and is antagonized by high (millimolar) concentrations of ATP. We have purified the upstream kinase >1000-fold from rat liver; a variety of evide...
