Outline of Final Research Achievements

TRAP1 (TNF receptor-associated protein), a homologue of HSP90, is mitochondrial molecular chaperone which regulates a metabolic switch between mitochondrial respiration and aerobic glycolysis. We explored the possibility that TRAP1 phosphorylation regulates its chaperone activity. We identified Y498 as a possible tyrosine phosphorylated residue, and found attenuation of c-Src mediated phosphorylation in TRAP1 with non-phosphomimetic mutation of this residue, while there was no significant difference in the ATP binding activity between the wild type, and phospho- or non-phosphomimetic mutation TRAP1.
