A Membrane-Bound Archaeal Lon Protease Displays ATP-Independent Proteolytic Activity towards Unfolded Proteins and ATP-Dependent Activity for Folded Proteins
Abstract
In contrast to the eucaryal 26S proteasome and the bacterial ATP-dependent proteases, little is known about the energy-dependent proteolysis in members of the third domain, Archaea . We cloned a gene homologous to ATP-dependent Lon protease from a hyperthermophilic archaeon and observed the unique properties of the archaeal Lon. Lon from Thermococcus kodakaraensis KOD1 (Lon Tk ) is a 70-kDa protein with an N-terminal ATPase domain belonging to...
