Structure and in vivo function of Hsp90

Open access
Pearl, Laurence H, Prodromou, Chrisostomos·2000·Current Opinion in Structural Biology

Abstract

Until recently, Hsp90 was one of the least well understood of the molecular chaperones, but considerable progress is now being made in unravelling its biochemistry. Hsp90 has now been shown to possess an inherent ATPase that is essential for the activation of authentic 'client' proteins in vivo and in vitro. The molecular detail of Hsp90's interactions with co-chaperones is also becoming clearer and the identification of key roles in assembling regulatory and signalling pathways has made it a target for anticancer drug development. Despite this, a clear understanding of how Hsp90 contributes to the folding and/or activation of its client proteins remains some way off.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
