Reaction: ATP + H2O = ADP + phosphate
Other name(s): molecular chaperone Hsc70 ATPase
Systematic name: ATP phosphohydrolase (polypeptide-polymerizing)
Comments: This is a highly diverse group of enzymes that perform many functions that are similar to those of chaperonins. They comprise a number of heat-shock-cognate proteins. They are also active in clathrin uncoating and in the oligomerization of actin.
