Abstract

Chaperone proteins assist in the folding of some newly synthesized proteins and inhibit protein aggregation. The Thermoanaerobacter brockii chaperonin proteins (Tbr-EL and Tbr-ES) have recently been purified and characterized [Truscott, W. N., Hoj, P. B., & Scopes, R. K. (1984) Eur. J. Biochem. 222, 277-284]; Tbr-EL was a single seven-membered toroid, unlike most GroELs which exist as double toroids. Using high-resolution, gel filtration chromatography, we have resolved the purified Tbr-EL into single ringed (Tbr-EL(7)) and double ringed (Tbr-EL(14)) species. The latter contained tightly bound Tbr-ES co-chaperonin (Tbr-EL(14). Tbr-E(7)). In the presence of Mg ATP and either Escherichia coli GroES (Eco-ES) or Tbr-ES (i.e., under protein folding conditions), the isolated Tbr-EL(7) rapidly dimerized to the Tbr-EL(14). Eco-ES(7) or Tbr-EL(14)Tbr-ES(7) complexes. The doubly toroidal species thus formed contained greater than or equal to 6 molecules tightly bound ADP and one GroES(7) and are similar to the asymmetric chaperonin complex isolated from Thermus rhemzophilus [Taguchi, H., Konishi, J., Ishii, N., & Yoshida, M. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 22411-22418]. The isolated Tbr-EL(7) and Tbr-EL(14). Tbr-ES(7) hydrolyzed ATP at, similar to 2 and 1 min(-1), respectively. Addition of a molar excess of Eco-ES(7) to the isolated Tbr-EL(7) reduced the ATPase activity to 1 min(-1), consistent with the formation of Tbr-EL(14) Eco-ES(7). Eco-ES(7) failed to inhibit the Tbr-EL(14) Tbr-ES(7) complex. The isolated Tbr-EL14 . Tbr-ES(7) complex did not support the folding of Rubisco under nonpermissive conditions. Only when the complex was supplemented with additional GroES was folding of Rubisco observed; i.e., one molar equivalent of GroES was not sufficient for folding. Both Tbr-EL(7) and Tbr-EL(14). Tbr-ES(7) bound one unfolded [S-35] Rhodospirillum rubrum Rubisco per mole particle. In contrast, Eco-EL(14) bound 2 mol of protein per mole particle, consistent with each toroid having a peptide binding site. Eco-EL(14). Eco-ES(7) complex only bound one unfolded protein, thus CroES binding blocks one GroEL peptide binding site. Addition of Eco-ES(7) to a Eco-EL(14). Rubisco(2) complex did not result in the displacement of one molecule of Rubisco but in the formation of a ternary EcoEL(14). Rubisco(2) . Eco-ES(7) complex.
