{PDOC51903} {PS51903; CLP_R} {BEGIN} ********************************* * Clp repeat (R) domain profile * ********************************* Molecular chaperones recognize unfolded or misfolded proteins by binding to hydrophobic surface patches not normally exposed in the native proteins. Members of the Clp/Hsp100 family of chaperones are present in eubacteria and within organelles of all eukaryotes, promoting disaggregation and disassembly of protein complexes and participating in energy-dependent protein degradation. The ClpA, ClpB, and ClpC subfamilies of the Clp/Hsp100 ATPases contain a conserved N-terminal domain of ~150 amino acids, which in turn consists of two repeats of ~75 residues. Although the Clp repeat (R) domain contains two approximate sequence repeats, it behaves as a single cooperatively folded unit. The Clp R domain is thought to provide a means for regulating the specificity of and to enlarge the substrate pool available to Clp/Hsp100 chaperone or protease complexes. These roles can be assisted through the binding of an adaptor protein. Adaptor proteins bind to the Clp R domain, modulate the target specificity of the Clp/Hsp100 complex to a particular substrate of interest, and may also regulate the activity of the complex [1,2,3,4,5,6]. The Clp R domain is monomeric and partially alpha helical. It is a single folding unit with pseudo 2-fold symmetry. The Clp R domain structure consists of two four-helix bundles connected by a flexible loop [2,3,4]. The profile we developed covers the entire Clp R domain. -Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the profile: ALL. -Other sequence(s) detected in Swiss-Prot: NONE. -Last update: August 2019 / First entry.
