Heat shock protein HSP 90-alpha (HSP90AA1)

The protein contains 732 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 84660 Da.

 

Molecular chaperone that promotes the maturation, structural maintenance and proper regulation of specific target proteins involved for instance in cell cycle control and signal transduction. Undergoes a functional cycle that is linked to its ATPase activity which is essential for its chaperone activity. This cycle probably induces conformational changes in the client proteins, thereby causing their activation. Interacts dynamically with various co-chaperones that modulate its substrate recognition, ATPase cycle and chaperone function (PubMed:11274138, PubMed:15577939, PubMed:15937123, PubMed:27353360, PubMed:29127155, PubMed:12526792). Engages with a range of client protein classes via its interaction with various co-chaperone proteins or complexes, that act as adapters, simultaneously able to interact with the specific client and the central chaperone itself (PubMed:29127155). Recruitment of ATP and co-chaperone followed by client protein forms a functional chaperone. After the completion of the chaperoning process, properly folded client protein and co-chaperone leave HSP90 in an ADP-bound partially open conformation and finally, ADP is released from HSP90 which acquires an open conformation for the next cycle (PubMed:27295069, PubMed:26991466). Plays a critical role in mitochondrial import, delivers preproteins to the mitochondrial import receptor TOMM70 (PubMed:12526792). Apart from its chaperone activity, it also plays a role in the regulation of the transcription mach (updated: Feb. 10, 2021)

DESCRIPTION

HSP90 proteins are highly conserved molecular chaperones that have key roles in signal transduction, protein folding, protein degradation, and morphologic evolution. HSP90 proteins normally associate with other cochaperones and play important roles in folding newly synthesized proteins or stabilizing and refolding denatured proteins after stress. There are 2 major cytosolic HSP90 proteins, HSP90AA1, an inducible form, and HSP90AB1 (140572), a constitutive form. Other HSP90 proteins are found in endoplasmic reticulum (HSP90B1; 191175) and mitochondria (TRAP1; 606219) (Chen et al., 2005).

CLONING

In humans, 2 distinct HSP90 cDNA clones were identified that hybrid-select different mRNA transcripts encoding 2 members of the HSP90 family. These were called HSP89-alpha and HSP89-beta (Hickey et al., 1986; Simon et al., 1987). By database analysis, Chen et al. (2005) identified several HSP90AA1 variants encoding proteins of 413, 635, 732, and 854 amino acids. Like other HSP90 proteins, the 732-amino acid HSP90AA1 protein has a highly conserved N-terminal domain, a charged domain, a middle domain involved in ATPase activity, a second charged domain, and a C-terminal domain. It also has a 4-helical cytokine motif, a gln-rich region, and a C-terminal MEEVD motif characteristic of cytosolic HSP90 proteins. The 854-amino acid HSP90AA1 isoform has an N-terminal extension compared with the 732-amino acid isoform, but is otherwise identical. - Chimeric CD47/HSP90AA1 Transcript By screening a T-lymphoblastic leukemia cell line (CEM) cDNA library with a probe originally isolated from a pancreatic cancer cDNA library, Schweinfest et al. (1998) cloned a variant of HSPCA that they designated HSP89-alpha-delta-N. The deduced 539-amino acid variant protein has a calculated molecular mass of about 63 kD. It has a unique 30-amino acid N terminus instead of the 223-amino acid ATP/geldanamycin-binding domain found at the N terminus of full-length HSPCA, which contains 732 amino acids. RT-PCR analysis detected expression of the variant in CEM cells and several pancreatic cell lines, as well as in normal pancreatic tissue. In vitro transcription/translation produced a protein with an apparent molecular mass of about 70 kD. Chen et al. (2005) determined that the HSP89-alpha-delta-N transcript, which they called HSP90N, is a chimera, with the first 105 bp of the coding sequence derived from the CD47 gene (601028) on chromosome 3q13.2, and the remaining coding sequence derived from HSP90AA1.

GENE FUNCTION

Stepanova et al. (1996) found that CDC37 (605065) and HSP90 associate preferentially with the fraction of CDK4 (123829) not bound to D-type cyclins. Pharmacologic inactivation of CDC37/HSP90 function leads to reduced stability of CDK4. CD14 (158120) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding protein (LBP; 151990) are major receptors for LPS; however, binding analyses and TNF production assays have suggested the presence of additional cell surface receptors, designated LPS-associated proteins (LAPs), that are distinct from CD14, LBP, and the Toll-like receptors (see TLR4; 603030). Using affinity chromatography, peptide mass fingerprinting, and fluorescence resonance energy transfer, Triantafilou et al. (2001) identified 4 diverse proteins, heat-shock cognate protein (HSPA8; 600816), HSP90A, chemokine receptor CXCR4 (162643), and growth/differentiation factor-5 (GDF5; 601146), on monocytes that form an activation cluster after LP ...
