ATP-dependent protease ATPase subunit HslU

UniProtKB accession:  P0A6H6

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  ATPase subunit of a proteasome-like degradation complex; this subunit has chaperone activity. The binding of ATP and its subsequent hydrolysis by HslU are essential for unfolding of protein substrates subsequently hydrolyzed by HslV. HslU recognizes the N-terminal part of its protein substrates and unfolds these before they are guided to HslV for hydrolysis.
