Abstract excerpt
Small heat shock proteins assemble as large oligomers in vitro and exhibit ATP-independent chaperone activities. Ile-X-Ile motif is essential in both the function and oligomer formation. AgsA of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium has been demonstrated to adopt large oligomeric structure and possess strong chaperone activity. Size exclusion chromatography, non-denaturing pore gradient PAGE, and negatively...
