| Abstract |
Proteins belonging to the B-subtype of the Hsp100/Clp chaperone family execute a crucial role in cellular thermotolerance. They cooperate with the Hsp70 chaperones in reactivation of thermally aggregated protein substrates. We investigated the initial events of the disaggregation reaction in real time using denatured, aggregated green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a substrate. Bacterial Hsp70 (DnaK), its co-chaperones (DnaJ and GrpE), and Hsp100 (ClpB) were incubated with aggregated GFP, and the increase in GFP fluorescence was monitored. Incubation of aggregated GFP with DnaK/DnaJ/GrpE but not with ClpB resulted in the rapid initiation of the disaggregation reaction. Under the same conditions a complex between DnaK, DnaJ, and GFP, but not ClpB, was formed as demonstrated by sedimentation analysis and light scattering experiments. Chaperone-dependent disaggregation of chemically denatured aggregated luciferase showed that, similar to GFP disaggregation, incubation with Hsp70 results in the rapid start of the reactivation reaction. For both aggregated GFP and luciferase, incubation with Hsp70 chaperones changes the initial rate but not the overall efficiency or rate of the refolding reaction. Our results clearly demonstrate that the interaction of DnaK and its co-chaperones with aggregated substrate is the rate-limiting reaction at the initial steps of disaggregation. |
