Mammalian HSP60 is quickly sorted into the mitochondria under conditions of dehydration

Abstract: There are few reports concerning the sorting mechanisms of mammalian HSP60 into the mitochondria from the cytoplasm. In the present study we investigated the protein import system. Based on immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry, HSP60 was detected in both the cytoplasm and mitochondria. The purified cytoplasmic HSP60 showed chaperone activity, and the protein was imported into the mitochondria in vitro by a mitochondrial import assay. HSP60 mRNA was increased in the kidney papilla of rats that had been water… Show more

“…In these cells we analyzed the expression of two heat shock protein genes, HSP60 and HSP75, at both basal and heat stress conditions. HSP60 (Cpn60) and HSP75 (TRAP1) are mitochondrial chaperones that assist, in both stressed and non-stressed cells, in the folding, unfolding, or disaggregating of proteins either imported from the cytosol or synthesized within mitochondria (HSP60) (Cheng et al 1989;Frydman 2001;Itoh et al 2002;Saibil 2008) and in the reallocation of cytosolic protein into mitochondria (HSP75) (Felts et al 2000;Mokranjac and Neupert 2005). In addition to its chaperone activity, HSP60 has welldocumented anti-or pro-apoptotic roles (Arya et al 2007;Chandra et al 2007) as well as immunoregulatory properties (Habich and Burkart 2007;Pockley et al 2008).…”
