J proteins drive the multifunctionality of HSP70s. Although it is possible to imagine that the versatility of HSP70 function could be achieved primarily through the amplification and diversification of HSP70 genes during evolution3, this does not seem to be the case. The number

of HSP70s in each cell is rather limited. However, J proteins often far outnumber HSP70s and NEFs in a cellular compartment12,13. For example, in mammals there is

one type of HSP70 in mitochondria and one type in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and four and six J proteins, respectively12,13. Overall, humans have only 11 HSP70s

and 13 NEFs, but 41 J proteins (FIG. 3; see Supplementary information S1 (figure)). In addition, and in contrast to HSP70, J proteins show a large degree of sequence and structural divergence (FIG. 3), consistent with the idea that they play a major part in driving the multifunctionality of the HSP70 machinery.

Diversity of J protein structure

The J domain is both the defining domain and the key to a functional interaction with HSP70s as it stimulates their ATPase activity12,13. However, many J proteins bear

little if any sequence or structural similarity outside this domain (FIG. 3; see Supplementary information S2 (figure))and increasing evidence indicates that these non-homologous regions are primary determinants of HSP70 function.

J domain — the common denominator. J proteins, by definition, contain a highly conserved ~70 amino acid signature region, the J domain, which is named after the founding member, Escherichia coli DnaJ (FIG. 4a). Particularly conserved is a His, Pro and Asp tripeptide (HPD), which is in a loop between the two main helices (helix II and helix III). This HPD motif is crucial for J domain function; that is, stimulation of HSP70’s ATPase activity. The exact mechanism of J domain-stimulated ATPase activity and the ensuing conform-ational changes resulting in stabilization of client interaction remain a matter of debate. However, it is established that exposed residues of the J domain form a surface for HSP70 interaction14,15. Crucial interactions

occur with HSP70’s ATPase domain and the adjacent flexible region, which links it to the client protein-binding domain (FIG. 2). These interactions are crucial for transmitting the conformation change necessary for closing the peptide-binding pocket15–20.

J protein groups, structure and classification. The J pro-tein family has often been referred to as the HSP40 family; but, as most members have a molecular weight that differs greatly from 40 kDa, we refer to them as J proteins throughout this Review. Despite the omni-present J domain, J proteins, as a group, are strikingly dissimilar, with various additional domains (FIG. 3, see Supplementary information S2 (figure)). Historically, J proteins have been divided into three classes (class I, II and III, also known as class A, B and C, respec-tively)13,21-23, with class I designation being based on the

motifs and domains present in E. coli DnaJ. Thus, by def-inition, class I J proteins have an N-terminal J domain, followed by a Gly and Phe-rich region, four repeats of the CxxCxGxG type zinc finger motif and a C-terminal

extension, which is now known to bind client pro-teins24–26. This type of C-terminal region is composed

of two barrel topology domains, C-terminal domain I (CTD I) and CTD II. CTD I has a hydrophobic pocket in which client proteins are thought to bind, as well as a zinc-finger domain extruding from it, which may

protein folding and HSP70 structure. a | The mode of action of the heat shock 70 kDa

protein (HSP70) core machinery, based on in vitro refolding studies of denatured proteins. J proteins bind to client proteins through their peptide-binding domain (1) and interact with HSP70–ATP through their J domain (2). The client rapidly, but transiently,

interacts with the ‘open’ peptide-binding site of HSP70. ATP hydrolysis is stimulated by both the J domain and client, causing a conformational change in HSP70 that closes the helical lid over the cleft and stabilizes the client interaction, and the J protein then leaves the complex (3). A nucleotide exchange factor (NEF), which has a higher affinity for HSP70–ADP than HSP70–ATP, binds HSP70 (4). The ADP then dissociates through

distortion of the ATP-binding domain (5), after which ATP binds to HSP70 (6). The client is released because of its low affinity for HSP70–ATP (7). ATP binding to HSP70 is favoured as cellular ATP concentrations are typically much higher than those of ADP. If the native state of the client is not attained on release, the J protein rebinds to its exposed

hydrophobic regions and the cycle begins again. b | The structure of HSP70 with ADP bound to the nucleotide-binding domain135 (protein data bank code 2KHO). The ATPase

domain and peptide-binding domain are connected by a short, flexible, hydrophobic linker. These domains dock when in the ATP-bound state, which is also thought to displace the lid, allowing easy access and egress of the client protein from the cleft17,136.

DNAJA3 Is Required for I!B Phosphorylation—Western blot analysis of human DNAJA3 revealed that flagellin-induced NF-!B accumulation in the nucleus was suppressed in DNAJA3 knockdown cells (Fig. 6, A and B). This finding indicates that DNAJA3 functions upstream of NF-!B nuclear translocation. Analysis of Drosophila Droj2 suggested that Droj2 works genet-ically downstream of Relish or in the regulation of Relish (Fig. 4, A–D). Relish protein contains the N-terminal Rel homology domain and the C-terminal I!B-like ankyrin repeat domain (57). We hypothesized that human Droj2 functions around I!B and NF-!B. Phosphorylated I!B is subjected to protein degra-dation, and phosphorylation of the NF-!B p65 subunit occurs with I!B dissociation and is important for its nuclear translo-cation (13). Western blot analysis for the phosphorylated I!B" and NF-!B p65 revealed that the increase in phosphorylated I!B" and p65 following flagellin stimulation was not observed in DNAJA3 knockdown cells (Fig. 6C). Consistent with this, the decrease in the amount of total I!B" protein following flagellin stimulation was not detected in DNAJA3 knockdown cells. Less I!B signal before stimulation in DNAJA3 knockdown cells

would be due to the fact that I!B is a transcriptional target of NF-!Bs (58). These findings suggest that DNAJA3 is required for the phosphorylation of I!B". IKK is the kinase responsible for NF-!B phosphorylation. Fig. 6D shows that overexpression of the catalytic IKK# subunit induced the phosphorylation of p65 and that phosphorylation was attenuated in DNAJA3 knockdown cells. This finding indicates that DNAJA3 func-tions downstream of IKK.

Discussion

Although the NF-!B signaling pathway is well studied because of its importance in many biologic processes, the com-plete picture of the complex molecular mechanisms of this pathway have not yet been elucidated. In this study, we identi-fied the cochaperone Droj2, which is involved in the Imd path-way, a Drosophila NF-!B pathpath-way, from our genome-wide gain-of-function screening in flies. Epistatic analysis revealed that Droj2 functions downstream of, or parallel to, NF-!B Rel-ish, and a cell culture assay revealed that Droj2 is prerequisite to the nuclear translocation of Relish, suggesting that Droj2 func-FIGURE 4.

Cg-GAL4 was used to drive the Imd pathway components, and the level of Diptericin expression in each overexpression line was set to 1. The experiments were repeated two to three times and yielded similar results. Data were analyzed using Student’s t test, and values represent the mean !

proteins interacting with DNAJA3 in vivo. For this purpose,

Flag-tagged DNAJA3 protein was transiently expressed in HEK293 cells,

and its interacting proteins were co-immunoprecipitated from the
