Structural highlights
1kp8 is a 14 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli. This structure supersedes the now removed PDB entry 1der. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
CH60_ECOLI Prevents misfolding and promotes the refolding and proper assembly of unfolded polypeptides generated under stress conditions.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00600] Essential for the growth of the bacteria and the assembly of several bacteriophages. Also plays a role in coupling between replication of the F plasmid and cell division of the cell.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00600]
