I.(1989)J. Cell Biol.109,1947-1962]。在hsc 70中,这一区域的大部分异常富含带电和极性氨基酸,并被预测具有高的a-螺旋含量。提出了基于这些结构特征的多肽结合模型。各种各样的环境扰动诱导细胞快速合成一组称为热休克(应激)蛋白的多肽[Lindquist和克雷格(1988)综述]。激活应激蛋白合成的多种处理共同具有引起变性或异常蛋白质的细胞内积累的潜力(Hightower,1980; Finley等人,1984; Ananthan等人,1986;爱丁顿等人,1989年)。真核细胞含有多基因家族,其编码几种密切相关且进化上保守的70-kDa应激蛋白(hsp 70家族),所述应激蛋白在其细胞内位置和调节方面不同(Pelham,

The 70-kDa heat shock induced proteins and their closely related constitutively expressed cognate proteins bind to unfolded and aberrant polypeptides and to hydrophilic peptides. The structural features of the 70-kDa heat shock proteins that confer the ability to associate with diverse polypeptides are unknown. In this study, we have used circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and secondary structure prediction to analyze the secondary structure of the mammalian 70-kDa heat shock cognate protein (hsc 70). The far-ultraviolet CD spectrum of hsc 70 indicates a large fraction of a-helix in the protein and resembles the spectra one obtains from proteins of the a//3 structural class. Analysis of the CD spectra with deconvolution methods yielded estimates of secondary structure content. The results indicate about 40% a-helix and 20% aperiodic structure within hsc 70 and between16-41%/3-sheet and 21-0%/3-turn. The Garnier-Osgu-thorpe-Robson method of secondary structure prediction was applied to the rat hsc 70 amino acid sequence. The predicted estimates of a-helix and aperiodic structure closely matched the values derived from the CD analysis, whereas the predicted estimates of/3-sheet and/3-turn were midway between the CD-derived values. Present evidence suggests that the polypeptide ligand binding domain of the 70-kDa heat shock protein resides within the C-terminal 160 amino acids [Milarski, KL, & Morimoto, R. I.(1989) J. Cell Biol. 109, 1947-1962]. Much of this region in hsc 70 is unusually rich in charged and polar amino acids and is predicted to have a high a-helical content. A model for polypeptide binding based on these structural features is proposed. wide variety of environmental perturbations induce cells to rapidly synthesize a group of polypeptides known as the heat shock (stress) proteins [reviewed by Lindquist and Craig (1988)]. The diverse treatments that activate stress protein synthesis have in common the potential to cause the intracellular accumulation of denatured or aberrant protein (Hightower, 1980; Finley et al., 1984; Ananthan et al., 1986; Edington et al., 1989). Eukaryotic cells contain a multigene family that encodes several closely related and evolutionarily conserved 70-kDa'stress proteins (the hsp 70 family) that differ in their intracellular location and regulation (Pelham,
