Structure and energetics of an allele-specific genetic interaction between dnaJ and dnaK: correlation of nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shift perturbations in the J-domain of Hsp40/DnaJ with binding affinity for the ATPase domain of Hsp70/DnaK.

Abstract excerpt

The molecular chaperone machine composed of Escherichia coli Hsp70/DnaK and Hsp40/DnaJ binds and releases client proteins in cycles of ATP-dependent protein folding, membrane translocation, disassembly, and degradation. The J-domain of DnaJ simultaneously stimulates ATP hydrolysis in the ATPase domain and capture of the client protein in the peptide-binding domain of DnaK. ATP-dependent binding of DnaJ to DnaK...
