Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Which endogenous yeast Hsp90 clients require Cpr7 catalytic PPIase activity rather than TPR-mediated co-chaperone scaffolding?

Q: How does Cpr7 coordinate with Cns1, Sti1, Cpr6, and Hsp104 across different metabolic or stress states?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Compare endogenous CPR7 wild type, PPIase-dead, PPIase-domain surface, and TPR-disrupting mutants for Hsp90 binding, client maturation, eEF2 solubility, stress sensitivity, and protein-refolding phenotypes.

Hypothesis: Most CPR7-dependent proteostasis phenotypes require TPR-mediated Hsp90 co-chaperone function, while a narrower client subset depends on PPIase-domain surfaces.

Research report: functional annotation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae CPR7 (UniProt P47103, ORF YJR032W)

Executive summary

Saccharomyces cerevisiae CPR7 encodes Cpr7, a cytosolic CyP40-type cyclophilin/immunophilin that functions primarily as a TPR-domain Hsp90 co‑chaperone rather than as a classical standalone prolyl isomerase. Cpr7 contains an N‑terminal cyclophilin (PPIase) domain and a C‑terminal tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain that binds the Hsp90 C‑terminal M/EEVD motif and organizes co‑chaperone/client interactions. Across multiple experimental contexts, the TPR domain is frequently sufficient to rescue key cpr7Δ phenotypes, whereas the PPIase catalytic activity is often dispensable; however, the PPIase domain surface can be required for viability in certain sensitized backgrounds (e.g., cns1 mutants), implying an essential noncatalytic scaffolding function of this domain in Hsp90 machinery organization. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1, zuehlke2012chaperoningthechaperone pages 1-2)

1. Key concepts and definitions (current understanding)

1.1 Gene/protein identity verification (critical disambiguation)

Primary yeast literature explicitly identifies CPR7 as one of the two yeast cyclophilin‑40 (CyP40) homologs (CPR6 and CPR7) and analyzes cpr7 deletion phenotypes in the context of the Hsp90 chaperone machine. This matches the UniProt description for P47103 (CPR7/YJR032W) and avoids confusion with similarly named cyclophilins in other organisms. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8)

1.2 Protein class: CyP40-type immunophilin

Cyclophilins are peptidyl‑prolyl cis–trans isomerases (PPIases, EC 5.2.1.8) that catalyze isomerization at peptide bonds N‑terminal to proline residues. CyP40-type cyclophilins are distinguished by dual-domain architecture: an N‑terminal cyclophilin/PPIase domain and a C‑terminal TPR region that binds Hsp90. In yeast, Cpr7 conforms to this CyP40 architecture. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8, kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 2-4)

1.3 Domain architecture and Hsp90-binding logic

Cpr7 is described as having an N‑terminal cyclophilin (PPIase) domain followed by ~three TPR motifs (degenerate ~34 aa repeats). Hsp90 binding is mediated by the carboxy‑terminal TPR region, which recognizes the conserved Hsp90 C‑terminal EEVD/MEEVD acceptor motif. A concrete domain boundary used in mechanistic work defined the Cpr7 TPR domain as aa 193–393. (arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8, zuehlke2012chaperoningthechaperone pages 14-14, zuehlke2012chaperoningthechaperone pages 1-2)

1.4 Enzymatic activity vs. co-chaperone function

Cpr7 has cyclosporin A (CsA)–inhibitable PPIase activity in vitro, consistent with cyclophilins, but multiple genetic and complementation experiments indicate that PPIase catalytic activity is not required for several major in vivo roles (growth rescue, Hsp90 client-related phenotypes, and prion maintenance). Instead, Cpr7’s primary function is best understood as a co-chaperone/scaffold within the Hsp90 network, largely mediated by its TPR domain and noncatalytic surfaces. (arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8, dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1)

2. Molecular function, pathways, and localization

2.1 Primary molecular function

Primary function (supported): Cpr7 is an Hsp90 co‑chaperone that regulates aspects of the Hsp90 folding cycle and client maturation via its TPR-mediated binding to Hsp90 and interactions with other co-chaperones (notably Cns1 and Sti1). (zuehlke2012chaperoningthechaperone pages 1-2, dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1)

Secondary/biochemical function: Cpr7 is also a PPIase with CsA-inhibitable activity, but the available evidence emphasizes that this enzymatic activity is often not the determinant of cellular phenotypes attributed to Cpr7. (arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8, kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 2-4)

2.2 Substrate specificity (PPIase)

The retrieved corpus does not provide a Cpr7-specific peptide substrate preference sequence. The biochemical activity is described at the level of cyclophilin-family chemistry (cis–trans isomerization of X‑Pro peptide bonds) and relative activity compared with Cpr6. (kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 2-4, arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8)

2.3 Pathways and interaction partners

Hsp90 chaperone cycle / co-chaperone network: Cpr7 genetically and physically associates with the Hsp90 system. Deletion causes slow growth and hypersensitivity to Hsp90 inhibition, and Cpr7 supports maturation of diverse Hsp90 clients (see below). (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, marsh1998cns1isan pages 1-1, arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8)

Cns1 (essential TPR co-chaperone): Cns1 was isolated as a high-copy suppressor of the cpr7Δ slow-growth phenotype and is found in complexes with Hsp90 and Cpr7 (but not Cpr6 in the cited experiments). Importantly, CsA inhibited Cpr7–Cns1 interaction but not Cpr7–Hsp90, implying that Cpr7 participates in separable interaction interfaces. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2)

Sti1/Hop: Genetic interaction studies implicate overlapping essential roles for Cpr7 and Sti1 in supporting Hsp90 function and normal growth, consistent with a multi-step cycle in which different TPR co-chaperones bind Hsp90 at different stages. (tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1, arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8)

Hsp104 and prion/stress networks: In respiring yeast, the Hsp90 cochaperones Sti1, Cpr7, and Cns1 form complexes with Hsp104 in vivo; Sti1 and Cpr7 can interact with Hsp104 directly in vitro, independent of Hsp90. This supports a shared cochaperone pool linking Hsp90 and Hsp104 systems under specific metabolic conditions. (abbasterki2001hsp104interactswith pages 1-2)

Ribosome / translation link: Cpr7, together with Cpr6 and Cns1, can interact with the intact ribosome, and cpr7 deletion or cns1 mutations confer hygromycin sensitivity, linking the Hsp90 cochaperone network to protein synthesis homeostasis. (tenge2015thehsp90cochaperones pages 1-2)

Chromatin-associated factor Rpd3: Cpr7 was identified in screens for Rpd3 interactors and is reported to interact with Rpd3/Sin3–Rpd3 histone deacetylase components, though the mechanistic relevance to its primary Hsp90 co‑chaperone role is less developed in the retrieved evidence. (arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 4-6)

2.4 Subcellular localization

A yeast prolyl isomerase review table lists Cpr7 as cytoplasmic, consistent with its role as a cochaperone of cytosolic Hsp90 and its observed interactions with Hsp104 and ribosomes. (arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 4-6, abbasterki2001hsp104interactswith pages 1-2, tenge2015thehsp90cochaperones pages 1-2)

3. Experimental evidence: phenotypes, domain requirements, and quantitative data

3.1 Growth and Hsp90 inhibitor sensitivity

  • cpr7Δ strains are viable but show a slow-growth phenotype. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8)
  • cpr7 mutants are hypersensitive to geldanamycin, an Hsp90 inhibitor. In Dolinski et al. (1998), assays used 20 mg/mL geldanamycin in plates. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 2-4)

These observations strongly support that Cpr7 supports basal Hsp90-dependent proteostasis. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2)

3.2 Domain dissection: TPR sufficiency and PPIase dispensability

A consistent finding across multiple contexts is that the TPR domain is the key functional module for many cpr7Δ phenotypes:
* Overexpression of the TPR domain alone complements cpr7Δ slow growth and geldanamycin hypersensitivity, whereas the cyclophilin/PPIase domain alone does not. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 2-4)
* The isolated Cpr7 TPR domain was defined as aa 193–393 in mechanistic studies. (zuehlke2012chaperoningthechaperone pages 14-14)

However, in sensitized backgrounds, the PPIase domain contributes via noncatalytic functions:
* In cns1 mutant cells, both TPR and the PPIase domain are required for viability, but this requirement does not depend on PPIase catalysis; instead, hydrophilic surface residues on the PPIase domain appear important. (tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1)

3.3 Hsp90 conformational-cycle regulation (mechanistic model)

Zuehlke & Johnson (2012) provides evidence that Cpr7 regulates the nucleotide-dependent association of Cpr6 with Hsp90, and proposes that Cpr7 promotes proper cycling/release of co-chaperones during the Hsp90 conformational cycle. In a summarized model, absence of Cpr7 leads to persistent Hsp82–Cpr6 complexes after ATP hydrolysis. (zuehlke2012chaperoningthechaperone pages 1-2, zuehlke2012chaperoningthechaperone pages 8-9)

3.4 Hsp90 client proteins and pathways

Cpr7 is required for maximal function of several Hsp90-dependent clients and pathways, including:
* Glucocorticoid receptor (GR) activity/maturation in yeast reporter assays; CNS1 overexpression in cpr7Δ largely restored GR activity. (marsh1998cns1isan pages 1-1)
* pp60v-src (v-Src) maximal activity; Cpr7 is required for maximal activity of this heterologous Hsp90 client. (marsh1998cns1isan pages 1-1)
* Heat shock transcription factor (HSF) negative regulation; HSF activity is derepressed in cpr7Δ, and Cns1 overexpression restores negative regulation in cpr7Δ. (arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8, marsh1998cns1isan pages 1-1)
* Mal63 (maltose-regulon transcriptional activator) stability: Mal63 half-life is shortened in compromised Hsp90+Cpr7 backgrounds (reported in the review synthesis). (arevalorodriguez2004prolylisomerasesin pages 7-8)

3.5 Prion biology: [URE3] stability

Kumar et al. (2015) shows a strong, quantitative phenotype:
* Deletion of CPR7 causes >99% loss of [URE3] propagation (cells become [ure‑o]). (kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 7-10)
* This effect is strongly dependent on the TPR domain (domain-swapping constructs bearing the Cpr7 TPR support [URE3]). (kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 7-10)
* A Cpr7 derivative lacking the PPIase domain still supports stable [URE3], supporting that PPIase activity is dispensable for this function. (kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 7-10)
* As a comparator, Ssa1 overexpression destabilized [URE3] only modestly (7–8% [ure‑o]), arguing Cpr7 loss is not explained solely by elevated Hsp70. (kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 7-10)

3.6 Ribosome/translation phenotypes

Cpr7 (with Cpr6 and Cns1) interacts with the intact ribosome, and loss of CPR7 or mutations in CNS1 confer hygromycin sensitivity, linking the Hsp90 cochaperone network to translation quality control. (tenge2015thehsp90cochaperones pages 1-2)

4. Recent developments (prioritizing 2023–2024)

4.1 2024: Cpr7/Cns1 in eEF2 proteostasis

A 2024 PLOS Genetics study situates Cpr7 in a modern, client-specific proteostasis circuit centered on translation elongation factor 2 (eEF2):
* The paper notes that a physical and genetic network consisting of Cpr7 and Cns1 had been recognized for years, but more recently these cochaperones (with Hgh1) were shown to regulate eEF2 folding/solubility. (fulton2024hsp90andcochaperones pages 4-5)
* In their experiments, deletion of CPR7 (and mutation of CNS1) resulted in significantly lower levels of soluble His‑eEF2 recovered by Ni-resin and lower eEF2 levels in lysates, consistent with decreased stability/solubility. (fulton2024hsp90andcochaperones pages 4-5)
* They cite prior quantitative estimates from earlier work: after CPR7 deletion or CNS1 knockdown, about 20% of eEF2 remained soluble, while after HGH1 deletion, about 40% remained soluble. (fulton2024hsp90andcochaperones pages 4-5)

These data extend CPR7 annotation from “general Hsp90 co-chaperone” into a defined translation-related client pathway (eEF2 proteostasis). (fulton2024hsp90andcochaperones pages 4-5)

4.2 2023–2024: current expert frameworks for yeast Hsp90/co-chaperone biology

Recent Hsp90 literature in yeast emphasizes cochaperones as regulators of progression through distinct conformational stages of the Hsp90 cycle, affecting client fate and drug sensitivity (e.g., NVP-AUY922/luminespib sensitivity correlated with defects in conformational steps). While these mechanistic papers focus heavily on Hsp90 mutants and other cochaperones, they reinforce the conceptual basis for why TPR cochaperones such as Cpr7 can have strong client-specific effects. (mercier2023hsp90mutantswith pages 1-2, mercier2023hsp90mutantswith pages 2-4, rios2024insightsintohsp90 pages 3-5)

5. Current applications and real-world implementations

5.1 Yeast as a platform to dissect Hsp90/co-chaperone function and drug responses

CPR7’s most direct “real-world” relevance is as part of the yeast Hsp90 machinery used for:
* Mechanistic dissection of chaperone cycles using genetics and defined clients (e.g., GR and v-Src reporters) (marsh1998cns1isan pages 1-1, tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1)
* Chemical biology screens and sensitivity assays with Hsp90 inhibitors (e.g., geldanamycin hypersensitivity in cpr7 mutants) to understand pathway buffering and co-chaperone contributions. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 2-4)

Because Cpr7 influences the maturation of heterologous clients and drug sensitivity, CPR7 status can be used to tune or interpret Hsp90-inhibitor phenotypes in yeast models, including those relevant to oncology drug discovery pipelines where Hsp90 is a target. (mercier2023hsp90mutantswith pages 1-2, dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 2-4)

5.2 Applications to prion biology and translation quality control

The strong penetrance of [URE3] loss in cpr7Δ provides a genetic entry point for studying prion propagation mechanisms and the role of the Hsp90/co-chaperone network in epigenetic protein-based inheritance. (kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 7-10)

Similarly, ribosome interaction and hygromycin sensitivity connect Cpr7 to translation-linked proteostasis, relevant to understanding how chaperone systems couple to protein synthesis. (tenge2015thehsp90cochaperones pages 1-2)

6. Expert interpretation and synthesis (authoritative analysis)

  1. Cpr7 is best annotated as an Hsp90 co-chaperone with immunophilin architecture. While it is enzymatically a PPIase, multiple phenotypes map primarily to its TPR/Hsp90-binding function and noncatalytic domain surfaces. (dolinski1998cns1encodesan pages 1-2, tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1, zuehlke2012chaperoningthechaperone pages 1-2)

  2. Catalysis-independent functions are central. The repeated observation that the PPIase domain can be deleted without abolishing growth/Hsp90 activity in some assays, and that prion maintenance depends on TPR, suggests Cpr7 has evolved primarily as a scaffold/adaptor in the Hsp90 network rather than as a general proline isomerase acting on bulk substrates. (kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 2-4, kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 7-10)

  3. Cpr7 has client- and context-specific roles. Cpr7 supports maturation of multiple clients (GR, v-Src, HSF regulation), affects prion propagation ([URE3]), and participates in translation proteostasis (ribosome interaction; eEF2 folding), indicating that Hsp90 co-chaperones partition Hsp90 capacity into selective modules. (marsh1998cns1isan pages 1-1, kumar2015hsp90associatedimmunophilinhomolog pages 7-10, tenge2015thehsp90cochaperones pages 1-2, fulton2024hsp90andcochaperones pages 4-5)

Requirement in cns1 mutant background In cns1 mutant cells, both the TPR and isomerase-domain surface of Cpr7 are required for viability, but not the catalytic PPIase activity itself Shared essential module with Cns1 Synthetic genetics, mutational analysis Hydrophilic surface residues in isomerase domain, rather than catalytic residues, were implicated (tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1) Tesic et al. 2003, https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.M304315200 (tesic2003functionalinteractionsbetween pages 1-1)

Scope and limitations

This report is strictly limited to the verified yeast CPR7/P47103/YJR032W protein. Within the retrieved corpus, Cpr7-specific enzymatic kinetic constants (e.g., kcat/KM, Ki for CsA for Cpr7 itself) and high-resolution localization microscopy were not available; claims about catalytic parameters and localization were therefore restricted to what is explicitly reported (comparative enzymology vs Cpr6; cytoplasmic localization as summarized in a yeast PPIase review).

- question: How does Cpr7 coordinate with Cns1, Sti1, Cpr6, and Hsp104 across different metabolic or stress states?
  experts: []
suggested_experiments:
- hypothesis: Most CPR7-dependent proteostasis phenotypes require TPR-mediated Hsp90 co-chaperone function, while a
    narrower client subset depends on PPIase-domain surfaces.
