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.

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 [...]

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

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.

Molecular chaperone HtpG; Molecular chaperone. Has ATPase activity.

Transcriptional regulator MalT; Positively regulates the transcription of the maltose regulon whose gene products are responsible for uptake and catabolism of malto- oligosaccharides. Specifically binds to the promoter region of its target genes, recognizing a short DNA motif called the MalT box.

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

Membrane protein FxsA; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
