Research Abstract |
ClpB can rescue the aggregated proteins(disaggregation). When the motion of N domain was restricted by the disulfide bond, the disaggregation activity of ClpB reduced. We found that the cause is in the threading-through process following the substrate-binding process. Moreover, we made two ClpB mutants in which two or six adjacent subunits of ClpB hexamer were cross-linked by the disulfide bond(s). Using these mutants, we found that the efficient disaggregation by ClpB required the moderate dissociation/association of the hexamer.
