摘要

Lon protein of Escherichia coli is an ATP- dependent protease responsible for the rapid turnover of both abnormal and naturally unstable proteins, including SulA, a cell division inhibitor made after DNA damage, and RcsA, a positive regulator of transcription. Lon is a multimer of identical 94-kDa subunits, each containing a consensus ATP- ase motif and a serine active site. We found that overexpress- ing Lon, which is mutated for the serine active site (LonS679A) and is therefore devoid of proteolytic activity, unexpectedly led to complementation of the UV sensitivity and capsule overproduction of a ion deletion mutant. SulA was not degraded by LonS679A, but rather was completely protected by the Lon mutant from degradation by other cellular pro- teases. We interpret these results to mean that the mutant LonS679A binds but does not degrade Lon substrates, result- ing in sequestration of the substrate proteins and interference with their activities, resulting in apparent complementation. Lon that carried a mutation in the consensns ATPase site, either with or without the active site serine, was no longer able to complement a #delta#lon mutant. These in vivo results suggest that the pathway of degradation by Lon couples ATP- dependent unfolding with movement of the substrate into protected chambers within Lon, where it is held until degra- dation proceeds. In the absence of degradation the substrate remains sequestered. Comparison of our results with those from a number of other systems suggest that proteins related to the regulatory portions of energy-dependent proteases a
