Structures of the ATP-fueled ClpXP proteolytic machine bound to protein substrate

open access: yeseLife, 2020
ClpXP is an ATP-dependent protease in which the ClpX AAA+ motor binds, unfolds, and translocates specific protein substrates into the degradation chamber of ClpP. We present cryo-EM studies of the E.

Tag-Dependent Substrate Selection of ClpX Underlies Secondary Differentiation of Chlamydia trachomatis

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Despite having a highly reduced genome, Chlamydia trachomatis undergoes a complex developmental cycle in which the bacteria differentiate between the following two functionally and morphologically distinct forms: the infectious, nonreplicative elementary

Crystal Structure of ClpX Molecular Chaperone from Helicobacter pylori [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
ClpX, a heat shock protein 100 chaperone, which acts as the regulatory subunit of the ATP-dependent ClpXP protease, is responsible for intracellular protein remodeling and degradation. To provide a structural basis for a better understanding of the function of the Clp ATPase family, the crystal structures of Helicobacter pylori ClpX, lacking an N ...

Table_3_Proteomic analysis of the regulatory networks of ClpX in a model cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803.xlsx

open access: yes, 2022
Protein homeostasis is tightly regulated by protein quality control systems such as chaperones and proteases. In cyanobacteria, the ClpXP proteolytic complex is regarded as a representative proteolytic system and consists of a hexameric ATPase ClpX and a

The ClpX and ClpP2 Orthologs of Chlamydia trachomatis Perform Discrete and Essential Functions in Organism Growth and Development

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacterium that undergoes a complex developmental cycle in which the bacterium differentiates between two functionally and morphologically distinct forms, the elementary body (EB) and reticulate body (RB),

A Staphylococcus aureus clpX Mutant Used as a Unique Screening Tool to Identify Cell Wall Synthesis Inhibitors that Reverse β-Lactam Resistance in MRSA

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of bacterial infections world-wide. Staphylococcal infections are preferentially treated with β-lactam antibiotics, however, methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains have acquired resistance to this superior

The Essential Role of ClpXP in Caulobacter crescentus Requires Species Constrained Substrate Specificity

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2017
The ClpXP protease is a highly conserved AAA+ degradation machine that is present throughout bacteria and in eukaryotic organelles. ClpXP is essential in some bacteria, such as Caulobacter crescentus, but dispensible in others, such as Escherichia coli ...

The Cell Wall Polymer Lipoteichoic Acid Becomes Nonessential in Staphylococcus aureus Cells Lacking the ClpX Chaperone

open access: yesmBio, 2016
Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) is an important cell wall component of Gram-positive bacteria and a promising target for the development of vaccines and antimicrobial compounds against Staphylococcus aureus.

A closed translocation channel in the substrate-free AAA+ ClpXP protease diminishes rogue degradation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
AAA+ proteases degrade intracellular proteins in a highly specific manner. E. coli ClpXP, for example, relies on a C-terminal ssrA tag or other terminal degron sequences to recognize proteins, which are then unfolded by ClpX and subsequently translocated

The ClpX chaperone modulates assembly of the tubulin‐like protein FtsZ [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2005
SummaryAssembly of the tubulin‐like cytoskeletal protein FtsZ into a ring structure establishes the location of the nascent division site in prokaryotes. Factors that modulate FtsZ assembly are essential for ensuring the precise spatial and temporal regulation of cytokinesis.
