Topologically knotted deubiquitinases exhibit unprecedented mechanostability to withstand the proteolysis by an AAA+ protease
More than one thousand knotted protein structures have been identified so far, but the functional roles of these knots remain elusive. It has been postulated that backbone entanglement may provide additional mechanostability. Here, we employed a bacterial proteasome, ClpXP, to mechanically unfold 5(...
