ATP-dependent Clp protease, ATP-binding subunit ClpB; Part of a stress-induced multi-chaperone system, it is involved in the recovery of the cell from heat-induced damage, in cooperation with DnaK, DnaJ and GrpE; Belongs to the ClpA/ClpB family.

Heat shock protein; 'initially identified as a pseudogene, expression verified by proteomics'; Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family.

Chaperone protein DnaK; Acts as a chaperone; Belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family.

Co-chaperone GrpE; Participates actively in the response to hyperosmotic and heat shock by preventing the aggregation of stress-denatured proteins, in association with DnaK and GrpE. It is the nucleotide exchange factor for DnaK and may function as a thermosensor. Unfolded proteins bind initially to DnaJ; upon interaction with the DnaJ-bound protein, DnaK hydrolyzes its bound ATP, resulting in the formation of a stable complex. GrpE releases ADP from DnaK; ATP binding to DnaK triggers the release of the substrate protein, thus completing the reaction cycle. Several rounds of ATP-depend [...]

Trypsin domain protein; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF00089.

Hypothetical protein; Identified by similarity to PIR:E85765; Belongs to the peptidase S1B family.

ATP-dependent protease hslV; Protease subunit of a proteasome-like degradation complex believed to be a general protein degrading machinery.

ATP-dependent hsl protease, ATP-binding subunit HslU; ATPase subunit of a proteasome-like degradation complex; this subunit has chaperone activity. The binding of ATP and its subsequent hydrolysis by HslU are essential for unfolding of protein substrates subsequently hydrolyzed by HslV. HslU recognizes the N-terminal part of its protein substrates and unfolds these before they are guided to HslV for hydrolysis.

Chaperone protein DnaJ; Participates actively in the response to hyperosmotic and heat shock by preventing the aggregation of stress-denatured proteins and by disaggregating proteins, also in an autonomous, DnaK-independent fashion. Unfolded proteins bind initially to DnaJ; upon interaction with the DnaJ-bound protein, DnaK hydrolyzes its bound ATP, resulting in the formation of a stable complex. GrpE releases ADP from DnaK; ATP binding to DnaK triggers the release of the substrate protein, thus completing the reaction cycle. Several rounds of ATP-dependent interactions between DnaJ, D [...]
