Although the structure of the closed conformation of Hsp70s is well studied, the open conformation has remained elusive. Here, we report on the 2.4 A crystal structure of the ATP-bound open conformation of the Escherichia coli Hsp70 homolog DnaK. In the open DnaK structure, the beta sheet and alpha-helical lid subdomains of the SBD are detached from one another and docked to different faces of the NBD. The contacts between the beta sheet subdomain and the NBD reveal the mechanism of allosteric regulation. In addition, we demonstrate that docking of the beta sheet and alpha-helical lid subdomains to the NBD is a sequential process influenced by peptide and protein substrates.
