Large-Scale Conformational Transitions and Dimerization Are Encoded in the Amino-Acid Sequences of Hsp70 Chaperones
2015
PLoS Computational Biology
We use the correlated amino acid coevolutions in protein sequences to identify directly interacting amino acids. ...
Furthermore, we highlight that the features encoding the Hsp70 dimer are more conserved in bacterial than in eukaryotic sequences, suggesting that the known Hsp70/Hsp110 hetero-dimer is a eukaryotic specialization ...
Acknowledgments We thank Andrea Pagnani, Pierre Goloubinoff, Andrija Finka, Jacques Rougemont and David Fabrice for useful discussions.

The Complex Phosphorylation Patterns that Regulate the Activity of Hsp70 and Its Cochaperones
2019
International Journal of Molecular Sciences
A protein machinery in metazoa, composed of representatives of the Hsp70, Hsp40, and Hsp110 chaperone families, can reactivate protein aggregates. ...
We revised herein the phosphorylation sites found so far in members of these chaperone families and the functional consequences associated with some of them. ...
Proteins and domains are drawn on scale according to the length of their amino acid sequences. ...

The Hsp70-Chaperone Machines in Bacteria
2021
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
Third, Hsp70s are targeted to their clients by a large number of cochaperones of the J-domain protein (JDP) family and the lifetime of the Hsp70-client complex is regulated by nucleotide exchange factors ...
In this review I will discuss advances in the understanding of the molecular mechanism of the Hsp70 chaperone machinery focusing mostly on the bacterial Hsp70 DnaK and will compare the two other prokaryotic ...
Thus, the small and large hydrophobic residues are reversed in the arch of eukaryotic Hsp70s. ...

Nonspecific Protein Adsorption Requires Large Adhesive Domains on the Surface
2011
Biophysical Journal
The success of disorder prediction using a protein's primary structure suggests that the propensity for disorder is encoded in the amino acid sequence. ...
Previously, we found that net charge per residue segregates IDP sequences along a globule-to-coil transition and speculated that the polymeric characters of an IDP conformational ensemble could be predicted ...

Getting a grip on non-native proteins
2003
EMBO Reports
Here, we explore the nature and occurrence of non-native proteins, and describe the diverse families of molecular chaperones and coordinated cellular responses that have evolved to prevent their misfolding ...
It is an underappreciated fact that non-native polypeptides are prevalent in the cellular environment. ...

Recent advances in the structural and mechanistic aspects of Hsp70 molecular chaperones
2018
Journal of Biological Chemistry
Significant advances in recent years are beginning to unravel the molecular mechanism of this chaperone machine and how they treat their substrate proteins. ...
Hsp70 chaperones are central hubs of the protein quality control network and collaborate with co-chaperones having a J-domain (an ∼70-residue-long helical hairpin with a flexible loop and a conserved His-Pro-Asp ...

2015
BioMed Research International
Molecular chaperones are key components in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and survival, not only during stress but also under optimal growth conditions. ...
Furthermore, when proteins are damaged, molecular chaperones may also facilitate their refolding or, in the case of irreparable proteins, their removal by the protein degradation machinery of the cell. ...
