71
What is BiP
Principal Hsp70 chaperone of ER stress in the ATP bound state
72
What happens with the hydrolysis of ATP in HSP 70
Accelerated by HSP40 closes the a-helical lid and a tight binding of substraate by HSP70 (high affinity) proper protien folding is facilitated

78
Can each 7 subunit bind ATP
YES
79
What are the four steps of chaperonin-mediated protien folding
1. Mis-folded protein is captured by hydrophobic residues near the entrance of the upper folding chamber (the lower chamber is blocked by the lid) 2. ATP binding then induces a conformational change of the chamber that triggers the GroEL lid to seal the upper chamber containing the encapsulated protien 3. Protien folding in chamber due to ATP hydrolosis once it is hydroloyzed another ATP can bind and a new lid binds to the other chamber 4. The binding causes the lid to dissociate from the upper chamber and release the folded protien

holdases as they bind and hold many unfolded proteins
86
What type of recations work with sHsp
Hydrophobic interactions
87
Is it a spontaneous recation of refolding non-native protiens in sHsp
NO you need the cooperation of ATP-dependent chaperones
88
What does the current model suggest
1. sHsps populate at equilibrium a wide variety of inter-converting oligomers 2. Under stress conditions substrate proteins are destabilized and being to unfold 3. The sHsp ensemble becomes activated by remodelling the large ensemble in favor of smaller oligomers with more substrate binding sites 4. Activates sHsps bind unfolded protiens in an energy-independent manner 5. sHsp/substrate complexes are stabilized in different forms 6. Bound substrates may recative spontaneously or are refloded by the ATP dependent Hsp70 chaperone system
89
What else can sHsps do
Matian the stability of actin filaments under stress conditions
90
The regulation depends of actin depends on what
phosphorylation of sHss which occuers under stress condtions
91
What happens to actin in unstressed cells
unphosphorylated sHsps monomers (HSBP1) cap the plus end so it doesn't polymerizaie
92
What happens to actin in stressed cells
sHsps are phosphorylated lareg oligomers are dissocated and phosphorylate sHsps bind to the surface of actin filaments and protect them from depolymerization and aggregation
93
