CryoEM reveals the stochastic nature of individual ATP binding events in a group II chaperonin
The mechanism by which chaperonins coordinate ATP utilization in their multiple subunits remains unclear. Here, the authors employ an approach that uses cryo-EM single particle analysis to track the number and distribution of nucleotides bound to each ...

Protein sorting to mitochondria [PDF]
According to the endosymbiont hypothesis, mitochondria have lost the autonomy of their prokaryotic ancestors. They have to import most of their proteins from the cytosol because the mitochondrial genome codes for only a small percentage of the ...

Functional divergence of chloroplast Cpn60α subunits during Arabidopsis embryo development. [PDF]
Chaperonins are a class of molecular chaperones that assist in the folding and assembly of a wide range of substrates. In plants, chloroplast chaperonins are composed of two different types of subunits, Cpn60α and Cpn60β, and duplication of Cpn60α and ...

Transcriptome profiling of grapevine seedless segregants during berry development reveals candidate genes associated with berry weight [PDF]
Indexación: Web of Science; PubMedBackground Berry size is considered as one of the main selection criteria in table grape breeding programs. However, this is a quantitative and polygenic trait, and its genetic determination is still poorly understood ...

Chaperonins are ubiquitous and essential protein folding machines. They have a striking structure, with two rings of seven, eight, or nine protomers forming a "double doughnut" complex, with the cavity in each ring being the likely site for protein folding to take place. The group I chaperonins, found in bacteria and the organelles descended from them,

Plasmodium falciparum harbors group 1 and group 2 chaperonin systems to mediate the folding of cellular proteins in different cellular locations. Two distinct group 1 chaperonins operate in the organelles of mitochondria and apicoplasts, while group 2 ...

The ribosome modulates folding inside the ribosomal exit tunnel
Wruck et al. investigate the folding of the small zinc-finger domain ADR1a inside and at the vestibule of the ribosomal tunnel, using optical tweezers, single-molecule FRET, and molecular dynamics simulations.
