A fluorescent multi-domain protein reveals the unfolding mechanism of Hsp70

Paolo De Los Rios, Satyam Tiwari, Pierre Goloubinoff, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Salvatore Assenza

Detailed understanding of the mechanism by which Hsp70 chaperones protect cells against protein aggregation is hampered by the lack of a comprehensive characterization of the aggregates, which are typically heterogeneous. Here we designed a reporter chaper ...

Efficient conversion of chemical energy into mechanical work by Hsp70 chaperones

Paolo De Los Rios, Alessandro Barducci, Alberto Stefano Sassi, Salvatore Assenza

Hsp70 molecular chaperones are abundant ATP-dependent nanomachines that actively reshape non-native, misfolded proteins and assist a wide variety of essential cellular processes. Here, we combine complementary theoretical approaches to elucidate the struct ...

The Shape of a Stretched Polymer

Paolo De Los Rios, Salvatore Assenza, Alberto Stefano Sassi

The shape of a polymer plays an important role in determining its interactions with other molecules and with the environment, and is in turn affected by both of them. As a consequence, in the literature the shape properties of a chain in many different con ...
