EC 3.4.25.2

Accepted name: HslU—HslV peptidase

Reaction: ATP-dependent cleavage of peptide bonds with broad specificity.

Other name(s): HslUV; HslV-HslU; HslV peptidase; ATP-dependent HslV-HslU proteinase; caseinolytic protease X; caseinolytic proteinase X; ClpXP ATP-dependent protease; ClpXP protease; ClpXP serine proteinase; Escherichia coli ClpXP serine proteinase; HslUV protease; HslUV proteinase; HslVU protease; HslVU proteinase; protease HslVU; proteinase HslUV

Comments: The HslU subunit of the HslU—HslV complex functions as an ATP dependent “unfoldase”. The binding of ATP and its subsequent hydrolysis by HslU are essential for unfolding of protein substrates subsequently hydrolysed by HslV [5]. HslU recognizes the N-terminal part of its protein substrates and unfolds these before they are guided to HslV for hydrolysis [7]. In peptidase family T1.
