Multitasking SecB chaperones in bacteria
Protein export in bacteria is facilitated by the canonical SecB chaperone, which binds to unfolded precursor proteins, maintains them in a translocation competent state and specifically cooperates with the translocase motor SecA to ensure their proper targeting to the Sec translocon at the cytoplasmic membrane. Besides its key contribution to the Sec pathway, SecB chaperone tasking is critical ...
متن کاملPeriplasmic Chaperones—Preservers of Subunit Folding Energy for Organelle Assembly
The periplasmic PapD-like chaperones have long been known to be necessary for the assembly of bacterial surface organelles. New structural work now suggests that they control assembly by arresting subunit folding. This step may be required to preserve energy for fiber formation.
متن کاملRegulation of the periplasmic stress responses in
The ability to adapt to changing environments is essential to survival. Bacteria have developed sophisticated means by which they sense and respond to stresses imposed by changes in the environment. I have undertaken the study of elements of the TE stress response pathway in the bacterium Escherichia coli and the orthologous pathway in the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These pathways sense ...
متن کاملProtein folding: Who chaperones nascent chains in bacteria?
Important advances in biology often occur when problems that have been controversial and seemingly complex are resolved with surprisingly simple and clear answers. Such has been the case with the problem of how proteins fold inside cells, which has seen a number of controversies and solutions in the past decade. A very recent example of this concerns the physiological functions of two molecular...
متن کاملDefining the roles of the periplasmic chaperones SurA, Skp, and DegP in Escherichia coli.
Integral beta-barrel proteins (OMPs) are a major class of outer membrane proteins in Gram-negative bacteria. In Escherichia coli, these proteins are synthesized in the cytoplasm, translocated across the inner membrane via the Sec machinery, and assembled in the outer membrane through an unknown mechanism that requires the outer membrane YaeT complex and the periplasmic chaperones SurA, DegP, an...
