Client protein activation by Hsp90 involves a plethora of cochaperones whose roles are poorly defined. A ubiquitous family of stress-regulated proteins have been identified (Aha1, activator of Hsp90 ATPase) that bind directly to Hsp90 and are required for the in vivo Hsp90-dependent activation of clients such as v-Src, implicating them as cochaperones of the Hsp90 system. In vitro, Aha1 and its shorter homolog, Hch1, stimulate the inherent ATPase activity of yeast and human Hsp90. The identification of these Hsp90 cochaperone activators adds to the complex roles of cochaperones in regulating the ATPase-coupled conformational changes of the Hsp90 chaperone cycle.

The molecular chaperone Hsp90 is known to be involved in the activation of key regulatory proteins such as kinases, steroid hormone receptors, and transcription factors in an ATP-dependent manner. During the chaperone cycle, Hsp90 has been found associated with the partner protein Hop/Sti1, which seems to be required for the progression of the cycle. However, little is known about its specific function. Here we have investigated the interaction of Sti1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae with Hsp90 and its influence on the ATPase activity. We show that the inhibitory mechanism of Sti1 on the ATPase activity of Hsp90 is non-competitive. Sti1 binds to the N- and C-terminal part of Hsp90 and prevents the N-terminal dimerization reaction that is required for efficient ATP hydrolysis. The first 24 amino acids of Hsp90, a region shown previously to be important for the association of the N-terminal domains and stimulation of ATP hydrolysis, seems to be important for this interaction.

The role of cytosolic factors in protein targeting to mitochondria is poorly understood. Here, we show that in mammals, the cytosolic chaperones Hsp90 and Hsp70 dock onto a specialized TPR domain in the import receptor Tom70 at the outer mitochondrial membrane. This interaction serves to deliver a set of preproteins to the receptor for subsequent membrane translocation dependent on the Hsp90 ATPase. Disruption of the chaperone/Tom70 recognition inhibits the import of these preproteins into mitochondria. In yeast, Hsp70 rather than Hsp90 is used in import, and Hsp70 docking is required for the formation of a productive preprotein/Tom70 complex. We outline a novel mechanism in which chaperones are recruited for a specific targeting event by a membrane-bound receptor.

The ATP-dependent molecular chaperone Hsp90 is an essential and abundant stress protein in the eukaryotic cytosol that cooperates with a cohort of cofactors/cochaperones to fulfill its cellular tasks. We have identified Aha1 (activator of Hsp90 ATPase) and its relative Hch1 (high copy Hsp90 suppressor) as binding partners of Hsp90 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. By using genetic and biochemical approaches, the middle domain of Hsp90 (amino acids 272-617) was found to mediate the interaction with Aha1 and Hch1. Data base searches revealed that homologues of Aha1 are conserved from yeast to man, whereas Hch1 was found to be restricted to lower eukaryotes like S. cerevisiae and Candida albicans. In experiments with purified proteins, Aha1 but not Hch1 stimulated the intrinsic ATPase activity of Hsp90 5-fold. To establish their cellular role further, we deleted the genes encoding Aha1 and Hch1 in S. cerevisiae. In vivo experiments demonstrated that Aha1 and Hch1 contributed to efficient activation of the heterologous Hsp90 client protein v-Src. Moreover, Aha1 and Hch1 became crucial for cell viability under non-optimal growth conditions when Hsp90 levels are limiting. Thus, our results identify a novel type of cofactor involved in the regulation of the molecular chaperone Hsp90.

Activation of client proteins by the Hsp90 molecular chaperone is dependent on binding and hydrolysis of ATP, which drives a molecular clamp via transient dimerization of the N-terminal domains. The crystal structure of the middle segment of yeast Hsp90 reveals considerable evolutionary divergence from the equivalent regions of other GHKL protein family members such as MutL and GyrB, including an additional domain of new fold. Using the known structure of the N-terminal nucleotide binding domain, a model for the Hsp90 dimer has been constructed. From this structure, residues implicated in the ATPase-coupled conformational cycle and in interactions with client proteins and the activating cochaperone Aha1 have been identified, and their roles functionally characterized in vitro and in vivo.

The molecular chaperones Hsp70 and Hsp90 are involved in the folding and maturation of key regulatory proteins in eukaryotes. Of specific importance in this context is a ternary multichaperone complex in which Hsp70 and Hsp90 are connected by Hop. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae two components of the complex, yeast Hsp90 (yHsp90) and Sti1, the yeast homologue of Hop, had already been identified, but it remained to be shown which of the 14 different yeast Hsp70s are part of the Sti1 complex and what were the functional consequences resulting from this interaction. With a two-hybrid approach and co-immunoprecipitations, we show here that Sti1 specifically interacts with the Ssa group of the cytosolic yeast Hsp70 proteins. Using purified components, we reconstituted the dimeric Ssa1-Sti1 complex and the ternary Ssa1-Sti1-yHsp90 complex in vitro. The dissociation constant between Sti1 and Ssa1 was determined to be 2 orders of magnitude weaker than the affinity of Sti1 for yHsp90. Surprisingly, binding of Sti1 activates the ATPase of Ssa1 by a factor of about 200, which is in contrast to the behavior of Hop in the mammalian Hsp70 system. Analysis of the underlying activation mechanism revealed that ATP hydrolysis is rate-limiting in the Ssa1 ATPase cycle and that this step is accelerated by Sti1. Thus, Sti1 is a potent novel effector for the Hsp70 ATPase.

The GHKL phosphotransferase superfamily, characterized by four sequence motifs that form the ATP-binding site, consists of the ATPase domains of type II DNA topoisomerases, Hsp90, and MutL, and bacterial and mitochondrial protein kinases. In addition to a magnesium ion, which is essential for catalysis, a potassium ion bound adjacent to the triphosphate moiety of ATP in a rat mitochondrial protein kinase, BCK (branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase kinase), has been shown to be indispensable for nucleotide binding and hydrolysis. Using X-ray crystallographic, biochemical, and genetic analyses, we find that the monovalent cation-binding site is conserved in MutL, but both Na(+) and K(+) support the MutL ATPase activity. When Ala100 of MutL is substituted by proline, mimicking the K(+)-binding environment in BCK, the mutant MutL protein becomes exclusively dependent on Na(+) for the ATPase activity. The coordination of this Na(+) ion is identical to that of the K(+) ion in BCK and involves four carbonyl oxygen atoms emanating from the hinges of the ATP lid and a non-bridging oxygen of the bound nucleotide. A similar monovalent cation-binding site is found in DNA gyrase with additional coordination by a serine side chain. The conserved and protein-specific monovalent cation-binding site is unique to the GHKL superfamily and probably essential for both ATPase and kinase activity. Dependence on different monovalent cations for catalysis may be exploited for future drug design specifically targeting each individual member of the GHKL superfamily.

CHIP is a cochaperone of Hsp70 that inhibits Hsp70-dependent refolding in vitro. However, the effect of altered expression of CHIP on the fate of unfolded proteins in mammalian cells has not been determined. Surprisingly, we found that overexpression of CHIP in fibroblasts increased the refolding of proteins after thermal denaturation. This effect was insensitive to geldanamycin, an Hsp90 inhibitor, and required the tetratricopeptide repeat motifs but not the U-box domain of CHIP. Inhibition of Hsp70 chaperone activity abolished the effects of CHIP on protein folding, indicating that the CHIP-mediated events were Hsp70 dependent. Hsp40 competitively inhibited the CHIP-dependent refolding, which is consistent with in vitro data indicating that these cofactors act on Hsp70 in the ATP-bound state and have opposing effects on Hsp70 ATPase activity. Consistent with these observations, CHIP overexpression did not alter protein folding in the setting of ATP depletion, when Hsp70 is in the ADP-bound state. Concomitant with its effects on refolding heat-denatured substrates, CHIP increased the fraction of nascent chains coimmunoprecipitating with Hsc70, but only when sufficient ATP was present to allow Hsp70 to cycle rapidly. Our data suggest that, consistent with in vitro studies, CHIP attenuates the Hsp70 cycle in living cells. The impact of this effect on the fate of unfolded proteins in cells, however, is different from what might be expected from the in vitro data. Rather than resulting in inhibited refolding, CHIP increases the folding capacity of Hsp70 in eukaryotic cells.

Hsp90 has a diverse array of cellular roles including protein folding, stress response and signal transduction. Herein we report a novel function for Hsp90 in the ATP-dependent assembly of the 26S proteasome. Functional loss of Hsp90 using a temperature-sensitive mutant in yeast caused dissociation of the 26S proteasome. Conversely, these dissociated constituents reassembled in Hsp90-dependent fashion both in vivo and in vitro; the process required ATP-hydrolysis and was suppressed by the Hsp90 inhibitor geldanamycin. We also found genetic interactions between Hsp90 and several proteasomal Rpn (Regulatory particle non-ATPase subunit) genes, emphasizing the importance of Hsp90 to the integrity of the 26S proteasome. Our results indicate that Hsp90 interacts with the 26S proteasome and plays a principal role in the assembly and maintenance of the 26S proteasome.

Hsp90 is a dimeric, ATP-regulated molecular chaperone. Its ATPase cycle involves the N-terminal ATP binding domain (amino acids (aa) 1-272) and, in addition, to some extent the middle domain (aa 273-528) and the C-terminal dimerization domain (aa 529-709). To analyze the contribution of the different domains and the oligomeric state on the progression of the ATPase cycle of yeast Hsp90, we created deletion constructs lacking either the C-terminal or both the C-terminal and the middle domain. To test the effect of dimerization on the ATPase activity of the different constructs, we introduced a Cys residue at the C-terminal ends of the constructs, which allowed covalent dimerization. We show that all monomeric constructs tested exhibit reduced ATPase activity and a decreased affinity for ATP in comparison with wild type Hsp90. The covalently linked dimers lacking only the C-terminal domain hydrolyze ATP as efficiently as the wild type protein. Furthermore, this construct is able to trap the ATP molecule similar to the full-length protein. This demonstrates that in the ATPase cycle, the C-terminal domain can be replaced by a cystine bridge. In contrast, the ATPase activity of the artificially linked N-terminal domains remains very low and bound ATP is not trapped. Taken together, we show that both the dimerization of the N-terminal domains and the association of the N-terminal with the middle domain are important for the efficiency of the ATPase cycle. These reactions are synergistic and require Hsp90 to be in the dimeric state.
