General annotation (Comments)

Function

Interacts with DnaK and GrpE to disassemble a protein complex at the origins of replication of phage lambda and several plasmids. Participates actively in the response to hyperosmotic and heat shock by preventing the aggregation of stress-denatured proteins and by disaggregating proteins, also in an autonomous, DnaK-independent fashion. Unfolded proteins bind initially to DnaJ; upon interaction with the DnaJ-bound protein, DnaK hydrolyzes its bound ATP, resulting in the formation of a stable complex. GrpE releases ADP from DnaK; ATP binding to DnaK triggers the release of the substrate protein, thus completing the reaction cycle. Several rounds of ATP-dependent interactions between DnaJ, DnaK and GrpE are required for fully efficient folding. Ref.6 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.12

Cofactor

Binds 2 zinc ions per monomer.

Subunit structure

Homodimer.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm HAMAP-Rule MF_01152.

Induction

By heat shock under the control of the HtpR regulatory protein. HAMAP-Rule MF_01152

Domain

The J domain is necessary and sufficient to stimulate DnaK ATPase activity. Zinc center 1 plays an important role in the autonomous, DnaK-independent chaperone activity of DnaJ. Zinc center 2 is essential for interaction with DnaK and for DnaJ activity. HAMAP-Rule MF_01152

Disruption phenotype

Single dnaJ and double dnaK-dnaJ disruption are non-essential; synthetic lethality is seen in a triple tig-dnaK-dnaJ disruption, although this depends on temperature (triple disruptions grow slowly at 20 and 34 degrees Celsius but not at 43 degrees) and strain background. Ref.10

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the DnaJ family.

Contains 1 CR-type zinc finger.

Contains 1 J domain.
