Popis: In the presence of its partner, GroES, the tetradecameric molecular chaperone GroEL binds 14 ATP molecules, half of which are hydrolyzed in a cooperative manner. Moreover GroEL can bind, with a positive cooperativity, more than two molecules of nonfolded protein rhodanese. The role of the cooperative mechanism in the functioning of GroEL is discussed.
