摘要: The Hsp70 chaperone activity in protein folding is regulated by ATP-controlled cycles of substrate binding and release. Nucleotide exchange plays a key role these triggering Structural searches homologs revealed three structural elements within the ATPase domain: two salt bridges an exposed loop. Mutational analysis showed that control dissociation nucleotides, interaction with factors activity. Sequence variations classify family members into subfamilies, DnaK proteins, HscA proteins Hsc70 proteins. These subfamilies show strong differences nucleotide GrpE Bag-1.
