DnaJC7 binds natively folded structural elements in tau to inhibit amyloid formation

Protein binding by the Hsp70/J-domain protein (JDP) chaperones prevents aggregation of the client protein. Here, the authors show that DnaJC7 binds preferentially to natively folded wild-type tau, via a β-turn element in tau that contains the known amyloid motif, while aggregation-prone tau mutants...

Description
Résumé:Protein binding by the Hsp70/J-domain protein (JDP) chaperones prevents aggregation of the client protein. Here, the authors show that DnaJC7 binds preferentially to natively folded wild-type tau, via a β-turn element in tau that contains the known amyloid motif, while aggregation-prone tau mutants are recognized with reduced affinity.
