The AAA + ATPase Thorase is neuroprotective against ischemic injury [PDF]
Neuronal preconditioning in vitro or in vivo with a stressful but non-lethal stimulus leads to new protein expression that mediates a profound neuroprotection against glutamate excitotoxicity and experimental stroke. The proteins that mediate neuroprotection are relatively unknown and under discovery.

Microtubule-severing enzymes: From cellular functions to molecular mechanism. [PDF]
Microtubule-severing enzymes generate internal breaks in microtubules. They are conserved in eukaryotes from ciliates to mammals, and their function is important in diverse cellular processes ranging from cilia biogenesis to cell division, phototropism ...

Bacterial Enhancer Binding Proteins—AAA+ Proteins in Transcription Activation
Bacterial enhancer-binding proteins (bEBPs) are specialised transcriptional activators. bEBPs are hexameric AAA+ ATPases and use ATPase activities to remodel RNA polymerase (RNAP) complexes that contain the major variant sigma factor, σ54 to convert

Specific lid-base contacts in the 26s proteasome control the conformational switching required for substrate degradation. [PDF]
The 26S proteasome is essential for proteostasis and the regulation of vital processes through ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated substrates. To accomplish the multi-step degradation process, the proteasomes regulatory particle, consisting of lid

Cdc6 ATPase activity disengages Cdc6 from the pre-replicative complex to promote DNA replication [PDF]
© 2015, Chang et al.To initiate DNA replication, cells first load an MCM helicase double hexamer at origins in a reaction requiring ORC, Cdc6, and Cdt1, also called pre-replicative complex (pre-RC) assembly.

Structure and function of the AAA+ ATPase p97/Cdc48p. [PDF]
p97 (also known as valosin-containing protein (VCP) in mammals or Cdc48p in Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is an evolutionarily conserved ATPase present in all eukaryotes and archaebacteria. In conjunction with a collection of cofactors and adaptors, p97/Cdc48p performs an array of biological functions mostly through modulating the stability of 'client ...

AAA+ ATPases: structural insertions under the magnifying glass
AAA+ ATPases are a diverse protein superfamily which power a vast number of cellular processes, from protein degradation to genome replication and ribosome biogenesis. The latest advances in cryo-EM have resulted in a spectacular increase in the number and quality of AAA+ ATPase structures.

The AAA+ ATPase/ubiquitin ligase mysterin stabilizes cytoplasmic lipid droplets
Mysterin, also known as RNF213, is an intracellular protein that forms large toroidal oligomers. Mysterin was originally identified in genetic studies of moyamoya disease (MMD), a rare cerebrovascular disorder of unknown etiology. While mysterin is known
