大肠杆菌的核糖体相关伴侣触发因子(TF)与各种新合成的多肽相互作用,以帮助其正确折叠。在这里,我们报告的TF的嗜热真细菌,嗜热栖热菌,逮捕自发折叠的绿色荧光蛋白形成1:1的二元复合物。该复合物可通过凝胶过滤分离,但由于α-酪蛋白大量释放绿色荧光蛋白,因此显示为动态的。出乎意料的是,EDTA完全消除了TF的折叠停滞活性,分析表明,我们制备的TF含有约0.5 mol Zn ~(2+)/mol TF。用Zn ~(2+)饱和的TF(~ 1 mol/mol TF)的折叠阻滞活性是未处理的TF的两倍。因此,嗜热TF的分子伴侣活性是Zn 2+依赖性的。
The ribosome-associated chaperone trigger factor (TF) of Escherichia coli interacts with a variety of newly synthesized polypeptides to assist their correct folding. Here, we report that the TF of thermophilic eubacterium, Thermus thermophilus, arrested spontaneous folding of green fluorescent protein by forming a 1:1 binary complex. The complex was isolable by gel-filtration but was shown to be dynamic because green fluorescent protein was released by α-casein in large excess. Unexpectedly, EDTA completely abolished the folding-arrest activity of TF, and analysis revealed that the TF from our preparation contained ∼0.5 mol Zn2+/mol TF. The folding-arrest activity of TF that was saturated with Zn2+ (∼1 mol/mol TF) was twice as efficient as that of untreated TF. Thus, chaperone activity of thermophilic TF is Zn2+-dependent.
