Abstract:
:The hsp70-interacting protein Hip participates in the assembly pathway for progesterone receptor complexes. During assembly, Hip appears at early assembly stages in a transient manner that parallels hsp70 interactions. In this study, a cDNA for human Hip was used to develop various mutant Hip forms in the initial mapping of functions to particular Hip structural elements. Hip regions targeted for deletion and/or truncation included the C-terminal region (which has some limited homology with Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sti1 and its vertebrate homolog p60), a glycine-glycine-methionine-proline (GGMP) tandem repeat, and a tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR). Binding of Hip to hsp70's ATPase domain was lost with deletions from the TPR and from an adjoining highly charged region; correspondingly, these Hip mutant forms were not recovered in receptor complexes. Truncation of Hip's Sti1-related C terminus resulted in Hip binding to hsp70 in a manner suggestive of a misfolded peptide substrate; this hsp70 binding was localized to the GGMP tandem repeat. Mutants lacking either the C terminus or the GGMP tandem repeat were still recovered in receptor complexes. Truncations from Hip's N terminus resulted in an apparent loss of Hip homo-oligomerization, but these mutants retained association with hsp70 and were recovered in receptor complexes. This mutational analysis indicates that Hip's TPR is required for binding of Hip with hsp70's ATPase domain. In addition, some data suggest that hsp70's peptide-binding domain may alternately or concomitantly bind to Hip's GGMP repeat in a manner regulated by Sti1-related sequences.
