| Description | Molecular chaperones recognize unfolded or misfolded proteins by binding to hydrophobic surface patches not normally exposed in the native proteins. Members of the Clp/Hsp100 family of chaperones are present in eubacteria and within organelles of all eukaryotes, promoting disaggregation and disassembly of protein complexes and participating in energy-dependent protein degradation. The ClpA, ClpB, and ClpC subfamilies of the Clp/Hsp100 ATPases contain a conserved N-terminal domain of ~150 amino acids, which in turn consists of two repeats of ~75 residues. Although the Clp repeat (R) domain contains two approximate sequence repeats, it behaves as a single cooperatively folded unit. The Clp R domain is thought to provide a means for regulating the specificity of and to enlarge the substrate pool available to Clp/Hsp100 chaperone or protease complexes. These roles can be assisted through the binding of an adaptor protein. Adaptor proteins bind to the Clp R domain, modulate the target specificity of the Clp/Hsp100 complex to a particular substrate of interest, and may also regulate the activity of the complex [, , , , , ].The Clp R domain is monomeric and partially alpha helical. It is a single folding unit with pseudo 2-fold symmetry. The Clp R domain structure consists of two four-helix bundles connected by a flexible loop [ , , ]. This entry represents the Clp repeat (R) domain [ ]. |
