Soybean mosaic virus (SMV)-disease is one of the most serious and widespread diseases in soybean (Glycine max). In the present study, a DnaJ protein in soybean designated GmCPIP (SMV coat protein-interacting protein) was screened by the QIS-Seq (quantitative interactor screening with next-generation sequencing) method, and the interaction between SMV CP and GmCPIP was confirmed by the yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) system and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) assay. Subcellular localization analysis indicated that both proteins are localized in the cytoplasm, cytomembrane and nucleus. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis showed that infection with SMV-SC4 temporarily increased the transcription of GmCPIP. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) down-regulated the GmCPIP gene by 82%, and the accumulation of SMV was decreased by 88.6% in GmCPIP-silenced plants inoculated with SMV-SC4. The interaction of GmCPIP with SMV CP seems to contribute to SMV infection in soybean.

The pathological deposition of tau and amyloid-beta into insoluble amyloid fibrils are pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease. Molecular chaperones are important cellular factors contributing to the regulation of tau misfolding and aggregation. Here we reveal an Hsp90-independent mechanism by which the co-chaperone p23 as well as a molecular complex formed by two co-chaperones, p23 and FKBP51, modulates tau aggregation.

DNAJC15 is a mitochondrial TIMM23-related co-chaperonin known for its role in regulating oxidative phosphorylation efficiency, oxidative stress response and lipid metabolism. Recently, it has been proposed that the loss of DNAJC15 correlates with cisplatin (CDDP)-resistance onset in ovarian cancer (OC), suggesting this protein as a potential prognostic factor during OC progression. However, the molecular mechanisms through which DNAJC15 contributes to CDDP response remains poorly investigated.

Obesity poses a global health challenge, demanding a deeper understanding of adipose tissue (AT) and its mitochondria. This study describes the role of the mitochondrial protein Methylation-controlled J protein (MCJ/DnaJC15) in orchestrating brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis. Here we show how MCJ expression decreases during obesity, as evident in human and mouse adipose tissue samples.

HSP70 chaperones play pivotal roles in facilitating protein folding, refolding, and disaggregation through their binding and releasing activities. This intricate process is further supported by J-domain proteins (JDPs), also known as DNAJs or HSP40s, which can be categorized into classes A and B. In yeast, these classes are represented by Ydj1 and Sis1, respectively.

Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are highly conserved molecular chaperones with essential roles against biotic and abiotic stressors. A large set of co-chaperons comprising J-domain proteins (DnaJs) regulate the ATPase cycle of Hsp70s with Hsp90s, together constituting a dynamic and functionally versatile network for protein folding/unfolding and regulation. Marine bivalves could accumulate and tolerate paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs), the well-noted neurotoxins generated during harmful algal blooms.
