ClpX (ATP-dependent Clp protease ATP-binding subunit clpX-like, mitochondrial) is a protein from the group of AAA proteins .

properties

ClpX is mainly formed in the skeletal muscles and in the heart , but also in the liver , brain , placenta , lungs , kidneys and pancreas . It binds and hydrolyzes adenosine triphosphate .

ClpX strengthens the binding of DNA through TFAM . It is also necessary for the structure of the nucleoid in the mitochondrion . ClpX is a chaperone that the binding of the pyridoxal - cofactor to the 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase mediated so that the biosynthesis of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and thus as a result of heme is increased. In addition, ClpX is involved in the formation of the Clp complex from ClpA and ClpP . Six ClpX molecules also form the protease complex ClpXp with ClpP. ClpX is acetylated .
