Abstract excerpt
ClpB belongs to the Hsp100 family and assists de-aggregation of protein aggregates by DnaK chaperone systems. It contains two Walker consensus sequences (or P-Loops) that indicate potential nucleotide binding domains (NBD). Both domains appear to be essential for chaperoning function, since mutation of the conserved lysine residue of the GX(4)GKT consensus sequences to glutamine (K204Q and K601Q) abolishes its...
