Identification of key hinge residues important for nucleotide-dependent allostery in E. coli Hsp70/DnaK.
DnaK is a molecular chaperone that has important roles in protein folding. The hydrolysis of ATP is essential to this activity, and the effects of nucleotides on the structure and function of DnaK have been extensively studied. However, the key residues that govern the conformational motions that de...
