The Hsc70-interacting protein Hip, a tetratricopeptide repeat protein, participates in the regulation of the eukaryotic 70 kDa heat shock cognate Hsc70. One Hip oligomer binds the ATPase domains of at least two Hsc70 molecules dependent on activation of the Hsc70 ATPase by Hsp40. While hydrolysis remains the rate-limiting step in the ATPase cycle, Hip stabilizes the ADP state of Hsc70 that has a high affinity for substrate protein. Through its own chaperone activity, Hip may contribute to the interaction of Hsc70 with various target proteins. We propose a mechanism for the regulation of eukaryotic Hsc70 that is distinct from that of bacterial Hsp70. The Hsc70/Hsp40/Hip system is apparently independent of a GrpE-like nucleotide exchange factor.

Applying stopped-flow fluorescence spectroscopy for measuring conformational changes of the DnaK molecular chaperone (bacterial Hsp70 homologue) and its binding to target peptide, we found that after ATP hydrolysis, DnaK is converted to the DnaK*(ADP) conformation, which possesses limited affinity for peptide substrates and the GrpE cochaperone but efficiently binds the DnaJ chaperone. In the presence of DnaJ (bacterial Hsp40 homologue), the DnaK*(ADP) form is converted back to the DnaK conformation, and the resulting DnaJ-DnaK(ADP) complex binds to peptide substrates more tightly. Formation of the DnaJ(substrate-DnaK(ADP)) complex is a rate-limiting reaction. The presence of GrpE and ATP hydrolysis promotes the fast release of the peptide substrate from the chaperone complex and converts DnaK to the DnaK*(ADP) conformation. We conclude that in the presence of DnaJ and GrpE, the binding-release cycle of DnaK is stoichiometrically coupled to the adenosine triphosphatase activity of DnaK.

The DnaK and DnaJ heat shock proteins function as the primary Hsp70 and Hsp40 homologues, respectively, of Escherichia coli. Intensive studies of various Hsp70 and DnaJ-like proteins over the past decade have led to the suggestion that interactions between specific pairs of these two types of proteins permit them to serve as molecular chaperones in a diverse array of protein metabolic events, including protein folding, protein trafficking, and assembly and disassembly of multisubunit protein complexes. To further our understanding of the nature of Hsp70-DnaJ interactions, we have sought to define the minimal sequence elements of DnaJ required for stimulation of the intrinsic ATPase activity of DnaK. As judged by proteolysis sensitivity, DnaJ is composed of three separate regions, a 9-kDa NH2-terminal domain, a 30-kDa COOH-terminal domain, and a protease-sensitive glycine- and phenylalanine-rich (G/F-rich) segment of 30 amino acids that serves as a flexible linker between the two domains. The stable 9-kDa proteolytic fragment was identified as the highly conserved J-region found in all DnaJ homologues. Using this structural information as a guide, we constructed, expressed, purified, and characterized several mutant DnaJ proteins that contained either NH2-terminal or COOH-terminal deletions. At variance with current models of DnaJ action, DnaJ1-75, a polypeptide containing an intact J-region, was found to be incapable of stimulating ATP hydrolysis by DnaK protein. We found, instead, that two sequence elements of DnaJ, the J-region and the G/F-rich linker segment, are each required for activation of DnaK-mediated ATP hydrolysis and for minimal DnaJ function in the initiation of bacteriophage lambda DNA replication. Further analysis indicated that maximal activation of ATP hydrolysis by DnaK requires two independent but simultaneous protein-protein interactions: (i) interaction of DnaK with the J-region of DnaJ and (ii) binding of a peptide or polypeptide to the polypeptide-binding site associated with the COOH-terminal domain of DnaK. This dual signaling process required for activation of DnaK function has mechanistic implications for those protein metabolic events, such as polypeptide translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum in eukaryotic cells, that are dependent on interactions between Hsp70-like and DnaJ-like proteins.

Chaperonin cpn60 and heat shock protein hsp70 couple their ATPase cycles to the binding and dissociation of non-native proteins. cpn60 is a cylindrical tetradecamer that uses a co-protein (cpn10) and both positive and negative cooperativity to alter the properties of its two voluminous protein-binding chambers in an alternating, asymmetric cycle. In the hsp70 reaction cycle, short segments of polypeptide bind rapidly and weakly to the ATP state, so triggering hydrolysis and consequent stabilization of the complex. Co-proteins of the hsp40 family enhance this partial reaction, whereas nucleotide exchange factors destabilize the product. The individual steps in the two energy transducing mechanisms have only recently been elucidated and provide us with a more detailed picture of the way in which these chaperones can influence the folding, assembly and translocation of protein structures in the cell.

The effects of the human DnaJ homolog, Hsp40, on the ATPase and chaperone functions of the constitutively expressed Hsp70 homolog, Hsc70, were analyzed. Hsp40 stimulates the hydrolysis of ATP by Hsc70, causing a approximately 7-fold increase in its steady-state ATPase activity. In contrast to the prokaryotic Hsp70 system, ATP-hydrolysis and not the release of bound ADP is the rate-limiting step in the overall ATPase cycle of mammalian Hsc70. The ability to activate the Hsc70 ATPase is partially preserved in a deletion mutant containing the J-domain and the G/F region of Hsp40 but not in a deletion mutant that contains the J-domain alone. As a result of its ATPase stimulating activity, addition of Hsp40 allows Hsc70 to bind peptide in the presence of ATP, whereas in the absence of Hsp40, peptide is efficiently released upon ATP binding to Hsc70. The functional cooperation of Hsp40 with Hsc70 is essential to ensure the ATP hydrolysis-dependent binding of aggregation-sensitive denatured polypeptides, such as thermally denatured firefly luciferase and chemically denatured rhodanese. Binding of these proteins results in the formation of ternary complexes of Hsc70, Hsp40, and substrates. Hsc70 and Hsp40 cooperate with further factors in protein renaturation, as demonstrated by the finding that luciferase, thermally denatured in the presence of Hsc70, Hsp40, and ATP, refolds upon addition of rabbit reticulocyte cytosol. Our results indicate that Hsp40 has a critical regulatory function in the Hsc70 ATPase cycle that is required for the efficient loading of peptide substrate onto Hsc70.

The hscA and hscB genes of Escherichia coli encode novel chaperone and co-chaperone proteins, designated Hsc66 and Hsc20, respectively. We have overproduced and purified Hsc66 and Hsc20 in high yield in E. coli and describe their initial characterization including absorbance, fluorescence, and circular dichroism spectra. Immunoblot analyses of E. coli cultures using antisera to Hsc66 and Hsc20 raised in rabbits establish that Hsc66 and Hsc20 are constitutively expressed at levels corresponding to cell concentration approximately 20 microM and approximately 10 microM, respectively. The levels do not change appreciably following heat shock (44 degrees C), but a small increase in Hsc20 is observed following a shift to 10 degrees C. Purified Hsc66 exhibits a low intrinsic ATPase activity (approximately 0.6 min-1 at 37 degrees C), and Hsc20 was found to stimulate this activity up to 3.8-fold with half-maximal stimulation at a concentration approximately 5 microM. These findings suggest that Hsc66 and Hsc20 comprise a molecular chaperone system similar to the prokaryotic DnaK/DnaJ and eukaryotic hsp70/hsp40 systems. Sequence differences between Hsc66 and Hsc20 compared to other members of this chaperone family, however, suggest that the Hsc66/Hsc20 system will display different peptide binding specificity and that it is likely to be subject to different regulatory mechanisms. The high level of constitutive expression and the lack of a major response to temperature changes suggest that Hsc66 and Hsc20 play an important cellular role(s) under non-stress conditions.

The BAG-1 protein appears to inhibit cell death by binding to Bcl-2, the Raf-1 protein kinase, and certain growth factor receptors, but the mechanism of inhibition remains enigmatic. BAG-1 also interacts with several steroid hormone receptors which require the molecular chaperones Hsc70 and Hsp90 for activation. Here we show that BAG-1 is a regulator of the Hsc70 chaperone. BAG-1 binds to the ATPase domain of Hsc70 and, in cooperation with Hsp40, stimulates Hsc70's steady-state ATP hydrolysis activity approximately 40-fold. Similar to the action of the GrpE protein on bacterial Hsp70, BAG-1 accelerates the release of ADP from Hsc70. Thus, BAG-1 regulates the Hsc70 ATPase in a manner contrary to the Hsc70-interacting protein Hip, which stabilizes the ADP-bound state. Intriguingly, BAG-1 and Hip compete in binding to the ATPase domain of Hsc70. Our results reveal an unexpected diversity in the regulation of Hsc70 and raise the possibility that the observed anti-apoptotic function of BAG-1 may be exerted through a modulation of the chaperone activity of Hsc70 on specific protein folding and maturation pathways.

Ydj1 is a member of the Hsp40 (DnaJ-related) chaperone family that facilitates cellular protein folding by regulating Hsp70 ATPase activity and binding unfolded polypeptides. Ydj1 contains four conserved subdomains that appear to represent functional units. To define the action of these regions, protease-resistant Ydj1 fragments and Ydj1 mutants were analyzed for activities exhibited by the unmodified protein. The Ydj1 mutant proteins analyzed were unable to support growth of yeast at elevated temperatures and were found to have alterations in the J-domain (Ydj1 H34Q), zinc finger-like region (Ydj1 C159T), and conserved carboxyl terminus (Ydj1 G315D). Fragment Ydj1 (1-90) contains the J-domain and a small portion of the G/F-rich region and could regulate Hsp70 ATPase activity but could not suppress the aggregation of the model protein rhodanese. Ydj1 H34Q could not regulate the ATPase activity of Hsp70 but could bind unfolded polypeptides. The J-domain functions independently and was sufficient to regulate Hsp70 ATPase activity. Fragment Ydj1 (179-384) could suppress rhodanese aggregation but was unable to regulate Hsp70. Ydj1 (179-384) contains the conserved carboxyl terminus of DnaJ but is missing the J-domain, G/F-rich region, and a major portion of the zinc finger-like region. Ydj1 G315D exhibited severe defects in its ability to suppress rhodanese aggregation and form complexes with unfolded luciferase. The conserved carboxyl terminus of Ydj1 appeared to participate in the binding of unfolded polypeptides. Ydj1 C159T could form stable complexes with unfolded proteins and suppress protein aggregation but was inefficient at refolding denatured luciferase. The zinc finger-like region of Ydj1 appeared to function in conjunction with the conserved carboxyl terminus to fold proteins. However, Ydj1 does not require an intact zinc finger-like region to bind unfolded polypeptides. These data suggest that the combined functions of the J-domain, zinc finger-like region, and the conserved carboxyl terminus are required for Ydj1 to cooperate with Hsp70 and facilitate protein folding in the cell.

The modulation of the chaperone activity of the heat shock cognate Hsc70 protein in mammalian cells involves cooperation with chaperone cofactors, such as Hsp40; BAG-1; the Hsc70-interacting protein, Hip; and the Hsc70-Hsp90-organizing protein, Hop. By employing the yeast two-hybrid system and in vitro interaction assays, we have provided insight into the structural basis that underlies Hsc70's cooperation with different cofactors. The carboxy-terminal domain of Hsc70, previously shown to form a lid over the peptide binding pocket of the chaperone protein, mediates the interaction of Hsc70 with Hsp40 and Hop. Remarkably, the two cofactors bind to the carboxy terminus of Hsc70 in a noncompetitive manner, revealing the existence of distinct binding sites for Hsp40 and Hop within this domain. In contrast, Hip interacts exclusively with the amino-terminal ATPase domain of Hsc70. Hence, Hsc70 possesses separate nonoverlapping binding sites for Hsp40, Hip, and Hop. This appears to enable the chaperone protein to cooperate simultaneously with multiple cofactors. On the other hand, BAG-1 and Hip have recently been shown to compete in binding to the ATPase domain. Our data thus establish the existence of a network of cooperating and competing cofactors regulating the chaperone activity of Hsc70 in the mammalian cell.

The regulation of the chaperone activity of the heat shock cognate Hsc70 protein in the mammalian cell involves a cooperation with chaperone cofactors such as Hsp40, the Hsp70-interacting protein Hip, and the Hsc70/Hsp90-organizing protein Hop. Recent studies have now added another component to the list of Hsc70 cofactors, the BAG-1 protein. Initially identified as an anti-apoptotic molecule and binding partner of the cell death inhibitor Bcl-2, BAG-1 appears to fulfill its cellular function through a modulation of Hsc70's chaperone activity. BAG-1 acts as a nucleotide exchange factor in the Hsc70 ATPase cycle, thereby competing with the cofactor Hip which stabilizes the ADP-bound state of Hsc70. The functional characterization of BAG-1 thus reveals an unexpected versatility in the regulation of Hsc70 and appears to provide a link between apoptosis and the cellular chaperone machinery.
