Abstract
Co-chaperones of the Hsp40 (or DnaJ) family play a key role in the maintenance of proteostasis. The main functions are: 1) recognition and binding of partially folded proteins; 2) delivering these proteins to Hsp70, which aid in folding; and 3) concomitant stimulation of ATPase activity of Hsp70. Because they are involved in recognizing several different proteins, there are more represent…

Abstract
Neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease is correlated with the occurrence of Lewy bodies, intracellular inclusions containing aggregates of the intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) a-synuclein (a-syn). In the cell, however, a-syn aggregation can be prevented by a class of proteins known as molecular chaperones, also called heat shock proteins. While numerous chaperones interact with a-…
