The chaperonin GroEL is an oligomeric double ring structure that, together with the cochaperonin GroES, assists protein folding. Biochemical analyses indicate that folding occurs in a cis ternary complex in which substrate is sequestered within the GroEL central cavity underneath GroES. Recently, however, studies of GroEL "minichaperones" containing only the apical substrate binding subdomain h...
GroEL is a bacterial chaperone protein that assembles into a homotetradecameric complex exhibiting D(7) symmetry and utilizes the co-chaperone protein GroES and ATP hydrolysis to assist in the proper folding of a variety of cytosolic proteins. GroEL utilizes two metal cofactors, Mg(2+) and K(+), to bind and hydrolyze ATP. A K(+)-binding site has been proposed to be located next to the nucleotid...
Here, we study and compare the mechanisms of action of the GroEL/GroES and the TRiC chaperonin systems on MreB client protein variants extracted from E. coli. MreB is a homologue to actin in prokaryotes. Single-molecule fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and time-resolved fluorescence polarization anisotropy report the binding interaction of folding MreB with GroEL, GroES and TRiC. Flu...
Conformational changes are known to play a crucial role in the function of the bacterial GroE chaperonin system. Here, results are presented from an essential dynamics analysis of known experimental structures and from computer simulations of GroEL using the CONCOORD method. The results indicate a possible direct form of inter-ring communication associated with internal fluctuations in the nucl...
The double-ringed GroEL chaperone complex is well-known for capturing partially folded proteins and confi ning them within its central cavity to facilitate folding. GroEL is especially important to proteins that have a complex folding pattern, such as Rubisco. A prominent model of GroEL function suggests that the chaperone fi rst partially unfolds its substrate, disrupting misfolded and inhibit...
Previously, it has been demonstrated that the invasion of Caco-2 cells by Plesiomonas shigelloides induces apoptotic cell death. Therefore, the attachment to and colonization of eukaryotic intestinal host cells by P. shigelloides are important steps in causing pathogenicity. In this study, the participation of P. shigelloides GroEL in the attachment of P. shigelloides was examined. The groESL o...
AIMS To investigate the factors affecting expression and solubilization of Escherichia coli maltodextrin glucosidase in E. coli. METHODS AND RESULTS Expression level and solubilization of the recombinant E. coli maltodextrin glucosidase was studied in E. coli at different temperatures, in presence of overexpressed GroEL, GroES and externally supplemented glycerol. Aggregation of maltodextrin ...
The possibility of using levels of specific mRNAs in individual bacteria as indicators of single-cell physiology was investigated. Estimates of the numbers of groEL and tsf mRNAs per cell in Salmonella typhimurium cells in different physiological states were obtained by Northern analysis. The average number of groEL mRNAs per cell was estimated to be 22 in fast-growing cultures and 197 in heat-...
The current mechanistic model of chaperonin-assisted protein folding assumes that the substrate protein in the cage, formed by GroEL central cavity capped with GroES, is isolated from outside and exists as a free polypeptide. However, using ATPase-deficient GroEL mutants that keep GroES bound, we found that, in the rate-limiting intermediate of a chaperonin reaction, the unfolded polypeptide in...
Bacteriophages are the most abundant biological entities in our biosphere, characterized by their hyperplasticity, mosaic composition, and the many unknown functions (ORFans) encoded by their immense genetic repertoire. These genes are potentially maintained by the bacteriophage to allow efficient propagation on hosts encountered in nature. To test this hypothesis, we devised a selection to ide...
