The ATP-Dependent Protease ClpP Inhibits Biofilm Formation by Regulating Agr and Cell Wall Hydrolase Sle1 in Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Biofilm causes hospital-associated infections on indwelling medical devices. In Staphylococcus aureus, Biofilm formation is controlled by intricately coordinated network of regulating systems, of which the ATP-dependent protease ClpP shows an inhibitory ...

Loss of the ClpXP Protease Leads to Decreased Resistance to Cell-Envelope Targeting Antimicrobials in Bacillus anthracis Sterne

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The ClpX ATPase is critical for resistance to cell envelope targeting antibiotics in Bacillus anthracis, however, it is unclear whether this is due to its function as an independent chaperone or as part of the ClpXP protease.

Mitofusin-2 Down-Regulation Predicts Progression of Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Identification of markers predicting disease outcome is a major clinical issue for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The present study aimed to determine the role of the mitochondrial proteins Mitofusin-2 (Mfn2) and caseinolytic protease P ...

Metabolic Perturbations in a Bacillus subtilis clpP Mutant during Glucose Starvation

open access: yesMetabolites, 2017
Proteolysis is essential for all living organisms to maintain the protein homeostasis and to adapt to changing environmental conditions. ClpP is the main protease in Bacillus subtilis, and forms complexes with different Clp ATPases.

A processive rotary mechanism couples substrate unfolding and proteolysis in the ClpXP degradation machinery

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The ClpXP degradation machine consists of a hexameric AAA+ unfoldase (ClpX) and a pair of heptameric serine protease rings (ClpP) that unfold, translocate, and subsequently degrade client proteins.

ClpP: A distinctive family of cylindrical energy‐dependent serine proteases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2007
Processes maintaining protein homeostasis in the cell are governed by the activities of molecular chaperones that mainly assist in the folding of polypeptide chains and by a large class of proteases that regulate protein levels through degradation. ClpP proteases define a distinctive family of cylindrical, energy‐dependent serine proteases that are ...

Reprogramming of the Caseinolytic Protease by ADEP Antibiotics: Molecular Mechanism, Cellular Consequences, Therapeutic Potential

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Rising antibiotic resistance urgently calls for the discovery and evaluation of novel antibiotic classes and unique antibiotic targets. The caseinolytic protease Clp emerged as an unprecedented target for antibiotic therapy 15 years ago when it was ...

ClpA mediates directional translocation of substrate proteins into the ClpP protease [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001
The intracellular degradation of many proteins is mediated in an ATP-dependent manner by large assemblies comprising a chaperone ring complex associated coaxially with a proteolytic cylinder, e.g., ClpAP, ClpXP, and HslUV in prokaryotes, and the 26S proteasome in eukaryotes.

Mitochondrial ClpP serine protease-biological function and emerging target for cancer therapy [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Disease, 2020
AbstractMitochondrial ClpP is a serine protease located in the mitochondrial matrix. This protease participates in mitochondrial protein quality control by degrading misfolded or damaged proteins, thus maintaining normal metabolic function. Mitochondrial ClpP is a stable heptamer ring with peptidase activity that forms a multimeric complex with the ATP-

Structural insights into the Clp protein degradation machinery

open access: yesmBio
The Clp protease system is important for maintaining proteostasis in bacteria. It consists of ClpP serine proteases and an AAA+ Clp-ATPase such as ClpC1.
