Interactions between the E3 ubiquitin ligase CHIP (C‐terminus of Hsp70 interacting protein) and the chaperone Hsp70 represent the physical intersection of two competing protein quality control efforts: refolding, and degradation. Interaction with CHIP allows for the formation of a productive encounter complex that facilitates ubiquitination of Hsp70‐bound substrates, thereby targeting those proteins for proteasomal degradation. Central to the CHIP/Hsp70 interaction are changes in structure and dynamics that occur upon binding. Although recruitment of Hsp70 to CHIP via interaction with the CHIP tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain is well established, alterations in structure and dynamics of CHIP and Hsp70 upon binding are not well understood. Using NMR we describe residue‐level changes in dynamics to the CHIP‐TPR domain that occur upon binding Hsp70. We also utilize small angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) to identify motions with the CHIP/Hsp70 complex. Independent SAXS and EPR experiments both point to a mobile Hsp70 substrate binding domain that is only partially constrained through interactions with the CHIP‐TPR. Building upon static models of the full‐length CHIP/Hsp70 complex, afforded by our recent crystal structure of the CHIP‐TPR/Hsp70‐lid‐tail complex, we have assembled a dynamic model of the CHIP‐Hsp70 complex. This dynamic model sheds light on the function of the CHIP/Hsp70 chaperoned ubiquitination complex and how CHIP harnesses dynamics of Hsp70 to overcome significant distance separations identified in earlier static models of the CHIP/Hsp70 complex.
