Title: The Mammalian mitochondrial Hsp70 chaperone system, new GrpE-like members and novel organellar substrates / by Dean Jason Naylor.
Author: Naylor, Dean Jason
Issue Date: 1999

Abstract: The DnaK (Hsp70), DnaJ and GrpE heat shock proteins of Escherichia coli work synergistically in a diverse number of vital cellular processes including the folding of nascent polypeptides, assembly and disassembly of multimeric proteins, refolding of malfolded proteins, degredation of unstable and non-native polypeptides, regulation of the stress response and the mediation of protein translocation across membranes. In this study Dna-K-affinity purification was employed to identify a mammalian mitrochondrial GrpE homologue (mt-GrpE#1) for the first time. The results are discussed.
