abstract = {The Hsp70 chaperone system is capable of disassembling
pathological aggregates such as amyloid fibres associated
with serious degenerative diseases. Here we examine the role
of the J-domain protein co-factor in amyloid disaggregation
by the Hsc70 system. We used cryo-EM and tomography to
compare the assemblies with wild-type DNAJB1 or inactive
mutants. We show that DNAJB1 binds regularly along
α-synuclein amyloid fibrils and acts in a 2-step
recruitment of Hsc70, releasing DNAJB1 auto-inhibition
before activating Hsc70 ATPase. The wild-type
DNAJB1:Hsc70:Apg2 complex forms dense arrays of chaperones
on the fibrils, with Hsc70 on the outer surface. When the
auto-inhibition is removed by mutating DNAJB1 (ΔH5 DNAJB1),
Hsc70 is recruited to the fibrils at a similar level, but
the ΔH5 DNAJB1:Ηsc70:Apg2 complex is inactive, binds less
regularly to the fibrils and lacks the ordered clusters.
Therefore, we propose that 2-step activation of DNAJB1
regulates the ordered assembly of Hsc70 on the fibril. The
localised, dense packing of chaperones could trigger a
cascade of recruitment and activation to give coordinated,
sequential binding and disaggregation from an exposed fibril
end, as previously observed in AFM videos. This mechanism is
likely to be important in maintaining a healthy cellular
proteome into old age.},
