Large conformational changes without ATP consummation
Energy saving chaperone Hsp90
18-Jan-2012 -
A special group of proteins, the so-called chaperones, helps other proteins to obtain their correct conformation. Until now scientists supposed that hydrolyzing ATP provides the energy for the large conformational changes of chaperone Hsp90. Now a research team from the Nanosystems Initiative ...
