Mechanism of substrate recognition by the chaperonin GroEL

open access: yesBiochemistry and Cell Biology, 2001
The bacterial chaperonin GroEL functions with its cofactor GroES in assisting the folding of a wide range of proteins in an ATP-dependent manner. GroEL–GroES constitute one of the main chaperone systems in the Escherichia coli cytoplasm. The chaperonin facilitates protein folding by enclosing substrate proteins in a cage defined by the GroEL cylinder ...

Lactobacillus stress protein GroEL prevents colonic inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Gastroenterology, 2021
International audienceBACKGROUND: We previously showed that supernatants of Lactobacillus biofilms induced an anti-inflammatory response by affecting the secretion of macrophage-derived cytokines, which was abrogated upon immunodepletion of the stress ...

Functional Differences between E. coli and ESKAPE Pathogen GroES/GroEL

open access: yesMBio, 2021
As the GroES/GroEL chaperonin system is the only bacterial chaperone that is essential under all conditions, we have been interested in the development of GroES/GroEL inhibitors as potential antibiotics. Using Escherichia coli GroES/GroEL as a surrogate,

GroEL Ring Separation and Exchange in the Chaperonin Reaction

open access: yesCell, 2018
The bacterial chaperonin GroEL and its cofactor, GroES, form a nano-cage for a single molecule of substrate protein (SP) to fold in isolation. GroEL and GroES undergo an ATP-regulated interaction cycle to close and open the folding cage.

Transmission Electron Microscopy of GroEL, GroES, and the Symmetrical GroEL/ES Complex

Journal of Structural Biology, 1994
Two new 2-D crystal forms of the Escherichia coli chaperone GroEL (cpn60) 2 x 7-mer have been produced using the negative staining-carbon film (NS-CF) technique. These 2-D crystals, which contain the cylindrical GroEL in side-on and end-on orientations, both possess p21 symmetry, with two molecules in the respective unit cells. The crystallographically

Structure and Allostery of the Chaperonin GroEL

Journal of Molecular Biology, 2013
Chaperonins are intricate allosteric machines formed of two back-to-back, stacked rings of subunits presenting end cavities lined with hydrophobic binding sites for nonnative polypeptides. Once bound, substrates are subjected to forceful, concerted movements that result in their ejection from the binding surface and simultaneous encapsulation inside a ...
