| UniProt functional annotation for P0A6H6 | |||
| UniProt codes: P0A6H6, P32168. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli O157:H7. | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | ATPase subunit of a proteasome-like degradation complex; this subunit has chaperone activity. The binding of ATP and its subsequent hydrolysis by HslU are essential for unfolding of protein substrates subsequently hydrolyzed by HslV. HslU recognizes the N-terminal part of its protein substrates and unfolds these before they are guided to HslV for hydrolysis. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00249}. | |
| Subunit: | A double ring-shaped homohexamer of HslV is capped on each side by a ring-shaped HslU homohexamer. The assembly of the HslU/HslV complex is dependent on binding of ATP. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_00249}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00249}. | |
| Induction: | By heat shock. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00249}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the ClpX chaperone family. HslU subfamily. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00249}. | |
