The hexamerization domain of N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor: structural clues to chaperone function

Neuwald, A. F. (February 1999) The hexamerization domain of N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor: structural clues to chaperone function. Structure, 7 (2). R19-23. ISSN 0969-2126 (Print)

Abstract

The hexameric structure of the D2 ATP-binding module of N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF), a chaperone involved in SNARE complex disassembly, was recently determined. This structure and the previously determined structure of the DNA polymerase III delta' subunit have far-reaching biological significance because these modules are related to diverse ATPases that promote the assembly, disassembly and operation of various protein complexes.
