Hsp40-Ydj1 dimerization domain
Overview
The molecular chaperone Hsp40 functions as a dimer. The dimer formation is critical for Hsp40 molecular chaperone activity to facilitate Hsp70 to refold non-native polypeptides. We have determined the crystal structure of the C-terminal fragment of yeast Hsp40 Ydj1 that is responsible for Ydj1 dimerization by MAD method. The C-terminal fragment of Ydj1 comprises of the domain III of Ydj1 and the Ydj1 C-terminal dimerization motif. The crystal structure indicates that the dimerization motif of type I Hsp40 Ydj1 differs significantly from that of yeast type II Hsp40. The C terminus of type I Hsp40 Ydj1 from one monomer forms beta-strands with the domain III from the other monomer in the homo-dimer. The L372 from Ydj1 C terminus inserts its side-chain into a hydrophobic pocket on domain III. The modeled full-length Ydj1 dimer structure reveals that a large cleft is formed between the two monomers. The domain IIs of Ydj1 monomers that contain the zinc-finger motifs points directly against each other.
