Abstract:
Current biochemical and structural studies on the conformational changes induced by the nature of nucleotide bound to the chaperonin containing testis complex polypeptide 1 (CCT) are examined to see how consistent the data are. This exercise suggests that the biochemical and structural data are in good agreement. CCT clearly appears as a folding nano-machine fueled by ATP. A careful comparison of the biochemical and structural data, however, highlights a number of points that remain to be carefully documented in order to better understand the nature of the conformational changes in CCT that yield folded target proteins. Special effort should be made to clearly answer the points listed at the end of this review in order to obtain the dynamic sequence of events yielding folded proteins in the eukaryotic cytoplasm similar to what has been obtained for prokaryotes.
