Nucleotide exchange factor 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 [...]

Molecular chaperone HtpG; Molecular chaperone. Has ATPase activity.

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

HslU--HslV peptidase ATPase subunit; 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.

HslU--HslV peptidase proteolytic subunit; Protease subunit of a proteasome-like degradation complex believed to be a general protein degrading machinery.

ATP-dependent chaperone 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.

Citrate (Si)-synthase; Type II enzyme; in Escherichia coli this enzyme forms a trimer of dimers which is allosterically inhibited by NADH and competitively inhibited by alpha-ketoglutarate; allosteric inhibition is lost when Cys206 is chemically modified which also affects hexamer formation; forms oxaloacetate and acetyl-CoA and water from citrate and coenzyme A; functions in TCA cycle, glyoxylate cycle and respiration; enzyme from Helicobacter pylori is not inhibited by NADH; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the cit [...]

Molecular chaperone HscA; Involved in the maturation of iron-sulfur cluster-containing proteins; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family.

Cell division protein FtsZ; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity.
