AAA+ ATPases are ubiquitous hexameric unfoldases acting in cellular protein quality control. In complex with proteases, they form protein degradation machinery (the proteasome) in both archaea and eukaryotes. Here, we use solution-state NMR spectroscopy to determine the symmetry properties of the archaeal PAN AAA+ unfoldase and gain insights into its functional mechanism. PAN consists of three folded domains: the coiled-coil (CC), OB and ATPase domains. We find that full-length PAN assembles...

The AAA+ (ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities) enzymes play critical roles in a variety of homeostatic processes in all kingdoms of life. Valosin-containing protein-like ATPase of Thermoplasma acidophilum (VAT), the archaeal homolog of the ubiquitous AAA+ protein Cdc48/p97, functions in concert with the 20S proteasome by unfolding...
