Molecular chaperones are involved in protein folding both in vivo and in vitro. The Escherichia coli chaperone GroEL interacts with a number of nonnative proteins. A common structural motif of nonnative pro- teins, which is recognized by GroEL, has not yet been identified. In order to study the role of &sheet secondary structure on the interaction of nonnative proteins with GroEL, we used the Fab fragment of a monoclonal an- tibody as a model substrate protein. Here we show that GroEL interacts functionally with this all-&protein during reactivation. Antibody fragments refold spontaneously in good yield from the guanidine-denatured state. Functional refolding to the native state is inhibited transiently by GroEL, but there is no complete folding arrest in the absence of Mg-ATP and GroES. The yield of these unspecifically released GroEL-bound Feb fragments corresponds to that of the spontaneous reactivation in the absence of chaperones. However, the refolding kinetics in the presence of GroEL are considerably slower. The addi- tion of Mg-ATP to the GroEL-F, complex results in an immediate release of bound substrate protein and a significant increase in the amount of reconstituted an- tibody fragments compared to spontaneous reactivation. GroES is not essential for functional GroEL-me- diated refolding of the Fab fragment but affects the reactivation yield to a small extent. Interestingly, stim- ulation of the GroEL-mediated Feb refolding depends primarily on hydrolysis of ATP, ATP-yS, and AMP-PNP the Measurements of ATPase Actiuity-In order to investigate the release of anorganic phosphate was determined colorimetrically after complexation with ammonium molybdate and malachite green as described (34). Light Scattering-Light scattering of refolding F.b fragment was followed by using a Perkin-Elmer fluorescence spectrophotometer MPF-44A equipped with a magnetic stirrer. The excitation and emission wavelengths were set at 360 nm with slits at 3 nm. Aggre- gation kinetics were recorded under stirring. The reaction was started by adding denatured Fab fragments to the reactivation buffer.
