Abstract excerpt
ClpB reactivates aggregated proteins in cooperation with DnaK/J. The ClpB monomer contains two nucleotide-binding domains (D1, D2), a coiled-coil domain, and an N-terminal domain attached to D1 with a 17-residue-long unstructured linker containing a Gly-Gly motif. The ClpB-mediated protein disaggregation is linked to translocation of substrates through the central channel in the hexameric ClpB, but the events...
