Lecture 5 Flashcards
how do cells respond to stress that causes protein misfolding
increasing expression of chaperones and other specialized proteins
are all chaperones hsps
NOOO
but all hsps are chaperones
describe hsr
heat shock response = cytosolic and nuclear proteins, protects against cell death
describe upr
unfolded protein response =ER proteins, can promote cell death if stress too severe
what do cells tailor the expression of chaperones to
tailor amount of chaperones to need of cell that has to reform misfolded proteins
the level of unfolded and misfolded protein
describe inducible chaperones
heat shock proteins
describe constitutive chaperones
assisted protein folding = proteins that facilitate folding of others = hold or stabilizing hydrophobic residues and assist folding
universal mechanism of protein homeostasis
describe drosophila and heat
heat induces transcription activation of certain genes and expression of specific proteins
discovered by accident
all cells respond to heat the same way = stop producing some proteins and favour production of other proteins
what is heat shock response activated by
unfolded cytosolic proteins - heat stress or oxidative damage or proteasome inhibition of alcohol ingestion
what happens during and after stress
during = transcription of hsps upregulated and transcription of other genes = down regulated - many hsps are chaperones
response continues after stress removed to help cells recover
expression highest ~12 hrs after = need time to refold proteins
what does HSF1 do
activates transcription of hsps
describe HSF1
transcription factor mediates hsr
has dna binding domain, regulatory domain, transcription activation domain
describe active and inactive HSF1
inactive HSF1 = monomeric
active hsf1 = trimer = recognizes HSE (heat shock element) promoters
trimerizes = quaternary structure
describe regulation of hsf - step 1
monomeric hsf1 is folded but mimics unfolded protein and is bound by hsp90
hsp 90 holds as monomer - recognizes patches
describe regulation of hsf - step 2
after heat shock unfolded proteins compete with hsf1 for hsp90 binding = more proteins want hsp90 so leaves hsf1 and allows hsf1 to trimerize and bind promoter
describe regulation of hsf - step 3
free hsf1 trimerizes and activates transcription
describe regulation of hsf - step 4
chaperones including hsp 90 are expressed and help fold or degrade unfolded proteins
describe regulation of hsf - step 5
hsf1 is down regulated by binding of excess hsp90 to the monomer form
so hsf1 is now bound again
do all substrates need the same chaperones
NOOOO
certain degrees of specificty
some substrates require specific chaperones or combos of chaperones
describe atp dependent chaperones
Actively promote folding
substrate binding and release are regulated by atpase cycles
describe atp independent chaperones
prevent aggregation and can catalyze some folding steps
good at holding substrate
describe cooperation between chaperones
usually work in network
cytosol
endoplasmic reticulum
constitutive and inducible = create network for the cell to have all the proteins folded
describe families of chaperones
Different families of chaperone proteins use various biochemical mechanisms – “protein folding toolkit”
3 families of ATP-dependent chaperones, with different structures and ATPase cycles
name atp dependent chaperone families and describe briefly
hsp 70 = works as monomer
hsp90 = dimer, nutcracker
chaperonines = hsp60 = provides cage and safe environment for protein to fold by itself
describe hsp70 - table
cytosol = hsc70 (active) and hsp70 (inducible)
ER = BiP
others = mitochondria, ribosomes
describe hsp90 - table
cytosol = hsp90, alpha and beta
er = GRP94
others = mitochondria
describe hsp60- table
chaperonin
cytosol = TRic
er = -
others = hsp60 in mitochondria
what does hsp60 function like
E coli GroEL
which chaperones are constitutively expressed
all are always expressed except HSP70
which chaperones are induced by heat shock response
hsp70
hsp90
hsp60
which are induced by ER unfolded protein response
Bip
GRP94
describe hsp70 family
70kda monomers
atpase domain controls substrate binding domain of hsp70
atp bound = no substrate binding
adp bound = substrate binding domain is closed tightly on peptide
binds short hydrophobic sequences
how does hsp70 function
with help of cochaperones = proteins which contact chaperones to regulate activity
some can bind to polypeptide substrates themselves and are both chaperones and cochaperones
name hsp70 co-chaperones
DNAJ (HSP40) family promote hsp70 substrate binding
nucleotide exchange factors
(NEFS) promote substrate release
describe hsp70 functional cycle - step 1
hsp40 recognzies misfolded protein
Hsp40-mediated delivery of substrate to ATP-bound Hsp70
induces atpase activity
describe hsp70 functional cycle - step 2
Hydrolysis of ATP to ADP mediated by Hsp40 results in closing of the α-helical lid and tight binding of substrate by Hsp70
conformational change = allows hsp70 to bind substrate
