JCB • VOLUME 171 • NUMBER 3 • 2005 406 Divided identities in the niche o maintain a stem cell niche at a fixed size, the niche exerts control over both cell differentiation (how many cells functionally leave the niche) and cell division. G. Venugopala Reddy and Elliot Meyerowitz (Caltech, Pasadena, CA) now show that, in the growing shoots of plants, these two control points are separable in both time and space. Their model was the shoot apical meristem (SAM). The SAM has a central zone (CZ) of stem cells plus T

The Protein Chaperone ClpX Targets Native and Non-native Aggregated Substrates for Remodeling, Disassembly, and Degradation with ClpP

ClpX is a member of the Clp/Hsp100 family of ATP-dependent chaperones and partners with ClpP, a compartmentalized protease, to degrade protein substrates bearing specific recognition signals. ClpX targets specific proteins for degradation directly or with substrate-specific adaptor proteins. Native substrates of ClpXP include proteins that form large oligomeric assemblies, such as MuA, FtsZ, an...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis ClpX Interacts with FtsZ and Interferes with FtsZ Assembly

FtsZ assembly at the midcell division site in the form of a Z-ring is crucial for initiation of the cell division process in eubacteria. It is largely unknown how this process is regulated in the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Here we show that the expression of clpX was upregulated upon macrophage infection and exposure to cephalexin antibiotic, the conditions where FtsZ-ring assem...

Large nucleotide-dependent movement of the N-terminal domain of the ClpX chaperone.

The ClpXP ATPase-protease complex is a major component of the protein quality control machinery in the cell. A ClpX subunit consists of an N-terminal zinc binding domain (ZBD) and a C-terminal AAA+ domain. ClpX oligomerizes into a hexamer with the AAA+ domains forming the base of the hexamer and the ZBDs extending out of the base. Here, we report that ClpX switches between a capture and a feedi...

ClpX(P) Generates Mechanical Force to Unfold and Translocate Its Protein Substrates

AAA(+) unfoldases denature and translocate polypeptides into associated peptidases. We report direct observations of mechanical, force-induced protein unfolding by the ClpX unfoldase from E. coli, alone, and in complex with the ClpP peptidase. ClpX hydrolyzes ATP to generate mechanical force and translocate polypeptides through its central pore. Threading is interrupted by pauses that are found...

Global virulence regulation in Staphylococcus aureus: pinpointing the roles of ClpP and ClpX in the sar/agr regulatory network.

Staphylococcus aureus causes infections ranging from superficial wound infections to life-threatening systemic infections. Essential for S. aureus pathogenicity are a number of cell-wall-associated and secreted proteins that are controlled by a complex regulatory network involving the quorum-sensing agr locus and a large set of transcription factors belonging to the Sar family. Recently, we rev...
