In the presence of ATP, bovine brain hsp70 has been shown to remove clathrin from bovine brain clathrin-coated vesicles in a rapid stoichiometric initial burst followed by slow steady-state uncoating. In addition, it has been found recently that a 100-kDa cofactor is required for hsp70 to uncoat clathrin baskets prepared with the assembly protein AP-2. In this study the ATPase activity associated with uncoating was investigated, with baskets formed from clathrin and assembly proteins. Mixed assembly proteins or assembly protein AP-2 could not be used in ATPase studies because they activated the hsp70 ATPase activity even in the absence of clathrin. However, this was not the case with assembly protein AP180. A stoichiometric initial burst of ATP hydrolysis was found to accompany the initial burst of uncoating of AP180-clathrin baskets by hsp70, with 1 mol of hydrolyzed ATP/mol of released clathrin heavy chain. Furthermore, the presence of a 100-kDa cofactor was needed for both processes. These results suggest that an initial burst of uncoating occurs with all clathrin baskets, that an initial burst of ATP hydrolysis accompanies this initial burst of uncoating, and that a 100-kDa cofactor is required for both.

D002966	Clathrin	The main structural coat protein of COATED VESICLES which play a key role in the intracellular transport between membranous organelles. Each molecule of clathrin consists of three light chains (CLATHRIN LIGHT CHAINS) and three heavy chains (CLATHRIN HEAVY CHAINS) that form a structure called a triskelion. Clathrin also interacts with cytoskeletal proteins.
D000251	Adenosine Triphosphatases	A group of enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP. The hydrolysis reaction is usually coupled with another function such as transporting Ca(2+) across a membrane. These enzymes may be dependent on Ca(2+), Mg(2+), anions, H+, or DNA.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D018840	HSP70 Heat-Shock Proteins	A class of MOLECULAR CHAPERONES found in both prokaryotes and in several compartments of eukaryotic cells. These proteins can interact with polypeptides during a variety of assembly processes in such a way as to prevent the formation of nonfunctional structures.
