The heat shock protein LarA activates the Lon protease in response to proteotoxic stress
Abstract The Lon protease is a highly conserved protein degradation machine that has critical regulatory and protein quality control functions in cells from the three domains of life. Here, we report the discovery of a α-proteobacterial heat shock protein, LarA, that functions as a dedicated Lon reg...
