Non-chaperonin molecular chaperone ATPase

Non-chaperonin molecular chaperone ATPase (, molecular chaperone Hsc70 ATPase) is an enzyme with systematic name ATP phosphohydrolase (polypeptide-polymerizing). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * ATP + H2O $$\rightleftharpoons$$ ADP + phosphate

These enzymes perform many functions that are similar to those of chaperonins.
