Heat Shock Protein 70 Disaggregase Amplification

## Molecular Mechanism and Rationale The HSP70 chaperone system operates as a protein disaggregation machine through an ATP-dependent cycle involving multiple specialized co-factors. HSPA1A (inducible HSP70) and HSPA8 (constitutive HSC70) work in concert with HSP40 co-chaperones (DNAJA1, DNAJB1) and the nucleotide exchange factor HSP110 (HSPH1) to form a trimeric disaggregase complex capable of extracting individual polypeptide chains from amorphous aggregates and amyloid fibrils through a thre...
