In Escherichia coli the heat shock response is under the positive control of the sigma 32 transcription factor. Three of the heat shock proteins, DnaK, DnaI, and GrpE, play a central role in the negative autoregulation of this response at the transcriptional level. Recently, we have shown that the DnaK and DnaJ proteins can compete with RNA polymerase for binding to the sigma 32 transcription factor in the presence of ATP, by forming a stable DnaJ-sigma 32-DnaK protein complex. Here, we report that DnaJ protein can catalytically activate DnaK's ATPase activity. In addition, DnaJ can activate DnaK to bind to sigma 32 in an ATP-dependent reaction, forming a stable sigma 32-DnaK complex. Results obtained with two DnaJ mutants, a missense and a truncated version, suggest that the N-terminal portion of DnaJ, which is conserved in all family members, is essential for this activation reaction. The activated form of DnaK binds preferentially to sigma 32 versus the bacteriophage lambda P protein substrate.

Using the native proteins lambda P, lambda O, delta 32, and RepA, as well as permanently unfolded alpha-carboxymethylated lactalbumin, we show that DnaK and DnaJ molecular chaperones possess differential affinity toward these protein substrates. In this paper we present evidence that the DnaK protein binds not only to short hydrophobic peptides, which are in an extended conformation, but also efficiently recognizes large native proteins (RepA, lambda P). The best substrate for either the DnaK or DnaJ chaperone is the native P1 coded replication RepA protein. The native delta 32 transcription factor binds more efficiently to DnaJ than to DnaK, whereas unfolded alpha-carboxymethylated lactalbumin or native lambda P binds more efficiently to DnaK than to the DnaJ molecular chaperone. The presence of nucleotides does not change the DnaJ affinity to any of the tested protein substrates. In the case of DnaK, the presence of ATP inhibits, while a nonhydrolyzable ATP analogues markedly stimulates the binding of DnaK to all of these various protein substrates. ADP has no effect on these reactions. In contrast to substrate protein binding, DnaK binds to the DnaJ chaperone protein in a radically different manner, namely ATP stimulates whereas a nonhydrolyzable ATP analogue inhibits the DnaK-DnaJ complex formation. Moreover, the DnaKc94 mutant protein lacking 94 amino acids from its C-terminal domain, which still possesses at ATPase activity and forms a transient complex with protein substrates, does not interact with DnaJ protein. We conclude that the DnaK-ADP form, derived from ATP hydrolysis, possesses low affinity to the protein substrates but can efficiently interact with DnaJ molecular chaperone.

The 46-kDa protein YDJ1 is one of several known yeast homologues of the Escherichia coli DnaJ protein. Like all J homologues, it shares homology with the highly conserved NH2-terminal "J-domain" of DnaJ. A component of the DnaK (Hsp70) chaperone machinery that mediates protein folding, DnaJ is necessary for survival at elevated temperatures. It stimulates ATP hydrolysis by DnaK and effects the release of DnaK-bound polypeptides. Previous genetic and biochemical studies indicate that the J-domain is necessary for these functions. Using peptides corresponding to J-domain sequence, we show that a peptide containing the highly conserved His-Pro-Asp sequence at positions 34-36 in the J-domain competes off YDJ1 stimulation of Hsp70 ATPase activity. Inhibitory concentrations of peptide do not prevent binding of folding substrates, therefore YDJ1 must interact with Hsp70 at a site distinct from that for substrate binding. This interaction is critical for Hsp70 activity, since a mutant YDJ1 protein harboring a H34Q change (ydj1Q34) stimulates neither Hsp70 ATPase nor substrate release. The importance of the proper function of this region of the protein is supported by the poor growth and temperature-sensitive phenotype of yeast expressing ydj1Q34.

Proteins enter the secretory pathway by two general routes. In one, the complete polypeptide is made in the cytoplasm and held in an incompletely folded state by chaperoning adenosine triphosphatases (ATPases) such as hsp70. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, fully synthesized secretory precursors engage the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane by interaction with a set of Sec proteins comprising the polypeptide translocation apparatus (Sec61p, Sec62p, Sec63p, Sec71p, Sec72p). Productive interaction requires displacement of hsp70 from the precursor, a reaction that is facilitated by Ydj1p, a homologue of the Escherichia coli DnaJ protein. Both DnaJ and Ydj1p regulate chaperone activity by stimulating the ATPase activity of their respective hsp70 partners (E. coli DnaK and S. cerevisiae Ssa1p, respectively). In the ER lumen, another hsp70 chaperone, BiP, binds ATP and interacts with the ER membrane via its contact with a peptide loop of Sec63p. This loop represents yet another DnaJ homologue in that it contains a region of approximately 70 residue similarity to the 'J box', the most conserved region of the DnaJ family of proteins. In the presence of ATP, under conditions in which BiP can bind to Sec63p, the secretory precursor passes from the cytosol into the lumen through a membrane channel formed by Sec61p. A second route to the membrane pore that is used by many other secretory precursors, particularly in mammalian cells, requires that the polypeptide engage the ER membrane as the nascent chain emerges from the ribosome. Such cotranslational translocation bypasses the need for certain Sec proteins, instead utilizing an alternate set of cytosolic and membrane factors that allows the nascent chain to be inserted directly into the Sec61p channel.

The DnaK, DnaJ, and GrpE proteins of Escherichia coli have been universally conserved across the biological kingdoms and work together to constitute a highly efficient molecular chaperone machine. We have examined the extent of functional conservation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ssc1p, Mdj1p, and Mge1p by analyzing their ability to substitute for their corresponding E. coli homologs in vivo. We found that the expression of yeast Mge1p, the GrpE homolog, allowed for the deletion of the otherwise essential grpE gene of E. coli, albeit only up to 40 degrees C. The inability of Mge1p to substitute for GrpE at very high temperatures is consistent with our previous finding that it specifically failed to stimulate DnaK's ATPase at such extreme conditions. In contrast to Mge1p, overexpression of Mdj1p, the DnaJ homolog, was lethal in E. coli. This toxicity was specifically relieved by mutations which affected the putative zinc binding region of Mdj1p. Overexpression of a truncated version of Mdj1p, containing the J- and Gly/Phe-rich domains, partially substituted for DnaJ function at high temperature. A chimeric protein, consisting of the J domain of Mdj1p coupled to the rest of DnaJ, acted as a super-DnaJ protein, functioning even more efficiently than wild-type DnaJ. In contrast to the results with Mge1p and Mdj1p, both the expression and function of Ssc1p, the DnaK homolog, were severely compromised in E. coli. We were unable to demonstrate any functional complementation by Ssc1p, even when coexpressed with its Mdj1p cochaperone in E. coli.

DnaJ proteins are located in various compartments of the eukaryotic cell. As previously shown, peroxisomes and glyoxysomes possess a membrane-anchored form of DnaJ protein located on the cytosolic face. Hints as to how the membrane-bound co-chaperone interacts with cytosolic soluble chaperones were obtained by examining the affinity between the DnaJ protein and various potential partners of the Hsp70 family. Two genes encoding cytosolic Hsp70 isoforms were isolated and characterized from cucumber cotyledons. In addition, cDNAs encoding Hsp70 forms attributed to the cytosol, plastids and the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum were prepared. His-tagged DnaJ proteins and glutathione S-transferase-Hsp70 fusion proteins were constructed. Using these tools, it was demonstrated that the soluble His-tagged form of DnaJ protein exclusively binds the cytosolic isoform 1 of Hsp70. This interaction was further analyzed by characterizing the interaction between the glyoxysome-bound form of the DnaJ protein and various isoforms of Hsp70. Specific binding to the glyoxysomal surface was only observed in the case of cytosolic isoform 1 of Hsp70. This interaction was strictly dependent on the presence of ADP. Glyoxysomes did not bind other cytosolic or plastidic isoforms or the BiP-related form of Hsp70. Analyzing the enzymatic properties of cytosolic Hsp70s, we showed that the ATPase-modulating activity of DnaJ was highest when isoform 1 was assayed. Collectively, the data indicate that the partner of the DnaJ protein anchored at the glyoxysomal membrane is the cytosolic isoform 1 of Hsp70. In addition to the chaperones located at the surface of glyoxysomes, two isoforms of Hsp70 and one soluble form of DnaJ protein were detected in the glyoxysomal matrix.

We have identified a novel human cDNA with a predicted protein sequence that has 28% amino acid identity with the E. coli Hsp70 co-chaperone GrpE and designated it HMGE. Even with this low level of amino acid identity the human sequence could be efficiently modelled on the X-ray structure of the E. coli protein, suggesting that there may be significant functional conservation. Indeed, HMGE expressed in E. coli as a GST fusion protein co-purified with the E. coli Hsp70 protein DnaK in the absence of ATP. DnaK could be released from the GST-HMGE with a Mg-ATP wash. Subcellular fractionation and immunocytochemistry studies using antisera raized against HMGE show that it is a mitochondrial protein. In contrast to studies of rat GrpE, however, HMGE also appears to bind the constitutive cytosolic Hsp70, Hsc70, in addition to mitochondrial Hsp70, Mt-Hsp70. We have previously shown that Hsc70 nucleotide-exchange is rate limiting in the presence of the DnaJ-protein, HSJ1b. However, HMGE was found to inhibit the HSJ1b-enhanced Hsc70 ATPase activity and may mediate this inhibition by binding the DnaJ-protein, HSJ1b. This is the first description of a direct interaction between a DnaJ protein and GrpE-like protein. These studies suggest that the structure of GrpE has been conserved throughout evolution and that the conserved structure can interact with several forms of Hsp70, but that HMGE cannot form part of the reaction cycle for cytosolic Hsc70.

We have identified cellular proteins that interact with the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) origin-binding protein (UL9 protein) by screening a HeLa cell complementary DNA library by using the yeast two-hybrid system. Approximately 7 x 10(5) colonies were screened. Five of the 48 positive clones contained cDNAs that encoded the p150(Glued) component of the dynactin complex, three contained cDNAs for the neural F Box 42-kDa protein (NFB42), which is highly enriched in neural tissue, and three contained hTid-1, a human homologue of the bacterial DnaJ protein. We have focused in this report on the interaction of the viral UL9 protein with the cellular hTid-1. In vitro immunoprecipitation experiments confirmed that hTid-1 interacts with the UL9 protein. Electrophoretic mobility-shift assays indicated that the hTid-1 enhances the binding of UL9 protein to an HSV-1 origin, ori(s), and facilitates formation of the multimer from the dimeric UL9 protein. hTid-1 had no effect on the DNA-dependent ATPase or helicase activities associated with the UL9 protein. These findings implicate hTid-1 in HSV-1 DNA replication, and suggest that this cellular protein may provide a chaperone function analogous to the DnaJ protein in Escherichia coli DNA replication.

Hsp70 chaperones assist protein folding processes through nucleotide-controlled cycles of substrate binding and release. In our effort to understand the structure-function relationship within the Hsp70 family of proteins, we characterized the Escherichia coli member of a novel Hsp70 subfamily, HscC, and identified considerable differences to the well studied E. coli homologue, DnaK, which together suggest that HscC is a specialized chaperone. The basal ATPase cycle of HscC had k(cat) and K(m) values that were 8- and 10,000-fold higher than for DnaK. The HscC ATPase was not affected by the nucleotide exchange factor of DnaK GrpE and stimulated 8-fold by DjlC, a DnaJ protein with a putative transmembrane domain, but not by other DnaJ proteins tested. Substrate binding dynamics and substrate specificity differed significantly between HscC and DnaK. These differences are explicable by distinct structural variations. HscC does not have general chaperone activity because it did not assist refolding of a denatured model substrate. In vivo, HscC failed to complement temperature sensitivity of DeltadnaK cells. Deletion of hscC caused a slow growth phenotype that was suppressed after several generations. Triple knock-outs of all E. coli genes encoding Hsp70 proteins (DeltadnaK DeltahscA DeltahscC) were viable, indicating that Hsp70 proteins are not strictly essential for viability. An extensive search for DeltahscC phenotypes revealed a hypersensitivity to Cd(2+) ions and UV irradiation, suggesting roles of HscC in the cellular response to these stress treatments. Together our data show that the Hsp70 structure exhibits an astonishing degree of adaptive variations to accommodate requirements of a specialized function.

We identified a mammalian BiP-associated protein, BAP, using a yeast two-hybrid screen that shared low homology with yeast Sls1p/Sil1p and mammalian HspBP1, both of which regulate the ATPase activity of their Hsp70 partner. BAP encoded an approximately 54-kDa protein with an N-terminal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) targeting sequence, two sites of N-linked glycosylation, and a C-terminal ER retention sequence. Immunofluorescence staining demonstrated that BAP co-localized with GRP94 in the endoplasmic reticulum. BAP was ubiquitously expressed but showed the highest levels of expression in secretory organ tissues, a pattern similar to that observed with BiP. BAP binding was affected by the conformation of the ATPase domain of BiP based on in vivo binding studies with BiP mutants. BAP stimulated the ATPase activity of BiP when added alone or together with the ER DnaJ protein, ERdj4, by promoting the release of ADP from BiP. Together, these data demonstrate that BAP serves as a nucleotide exchange factor for BiP and provide insights into the mechanisms that control protein folding in the mammalian ER.
