ATP-dependent Clp protease ATP-binding subunit clpX-like, mitochondrial (CLPX)

Function

• ATP-dependent specificity component of the Clp protease
• directs the protease to specific substrates. can perform chaperone functions in the absence of clpP (putative)
• heterodimer of clpP & clpX (putative)

Structure

belongs to the ClpX chaperone family

Compartment

mitochondria

Expression

• higher expression in skeletal muscle & heart
• lesser expression in liver, brain, placenta, lung, kidney & pancreas

More general terms

• mitochondrial protein
• zinc finger protein
• phosphoprotein
• protein subunit

Component of

• endopeptidase Clp (ATP-dependent Clp protease)
