hexamer or dodecamer | hexameric structure of mature enzyme, the Deg2 hexamer exists predominantly during substrate incubation in a resting state,the large oligomeric state is the active state, model of oligomeric state change, overview | Arabidopsis thaliana |
More | structure-function analysis of the dimerization interface between Deg2 trimers, overview. The enzyme contains a unique second PDZ domain (PDZ2) following a conventional PDZ domain (PDZ1), with PDZ2 orchestrating the cage assembly of the enzyme, a conserved internal ligand for PDZ2 mediates hexamer formation and locks the protease in the resting state. Because loop JK lies outside the hexamer shell, it provides protection for the loop LA-PDZ2 interface from solvents and may play a role in changes in the oligomeric enzyme state | Arabidopsis thaliana |

additional information | The Deg2 protease domain consists of a catalytic triad comprising His159, Asp190, and Ser268. The enzyme contains a unique second PDZ domain (PDZ2) following a conventional PDZ domain (PDZ1), with PDZ2 orchestrating the cage assembly of the enzyme, a conserved internal ligand for PDZ2 mediates hexamer formation and locks the protease in the resting state | Arabidopsis thaliana |
physiological function | the enzyme's proteolytic activity in the chloroplast stroma is required to maintain the efficiency of photosynthetic machinery during stress, the enzyme exhibits dual protease-chaperone activities | Arabidopsis thaliana |
