Hsp104, a conserved hexameric AAA+ protein-remodeling factor from yeast, solubilizes disordered aggregates and amyloid. Hsp104 can disaggregate misfolded proteins implicated in neurodegeneration, however this activity is weak, which has prompted efforts to engineer Hsp104 variants with enhanced activity. Many potentiated Hsp104 variants have been generated, however application of these variants in mammalian systems has stalled due to suboptimal substrate specificity and off-target effects of the variants. Here, we present a high-throughput approach to identify substrate-optimized enhanced Hsp104 variants that solubilize preformed α-syn and TDP-43 aggregates with diminished off-target toxicity in mammalian cells. Mechanistic studies of these new variants also reveal new insights into Hsp104 function and potentiation. We anticipate that our screening approach could be broadly applied to a range of protein engineering targets and establish that the new Hsp104 variants we have uncovered have key improvements facilitating their application in mammalian cells. 000103653 536__ $$oNational Institutes of Health$$qhttps://ror.org/01cwqze88$$rROR$$cF31GM140622 000103653 536__ $$oCenter for Science and Engineering of Living Systems (CSELS) Fellowship 000103653 536__ $$oNational Institutes of Health$$qhttps://ror.org/01cwqze88$$rROR$$cR35GM128772 000103653 536__ $$oTarget ALS Springboard Award 000103653 536__ $$oFrick Foundation for ALS Award 000103653 536__ $$oALS Association Award 000103653 540__ $$aCreative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial No-Derivatives (CC BY-NC-SA) 4.0 International$$uhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ 000103653 650__ $$aChemical sciences 000103653 650__ $$aBiological sciences 000103653 6531_ $$aHsp104 000103653 6531_ $$aprotein misfolding 000103653 6531_ $$aprotein disaggregase 000103653 6531_ $$aTAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) 000103653 6531_ $$anext-generation sequencing 000103653 6531_ $$adeep mutational scanning 000103653 6531_ $$aalpha-synuclein 000103653 6531_ $$afused in sarcoma (FUS) 000103653 655__ $$aText 000103653 7001_ $$aRyan, Jeremy$$1https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0410-2456$$uWashington University in St. Louis$$4https://ror.org/01yc7t268$$5ROR 000103653 7001_ $$aStaller, Max$$1https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9094-5697$$uUniversity of California, Berkeley$$4https://ror.org/01an7q238$$5ROR 000103653 7001_ $$aJackrel, Meredith$$1https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4406-9504$$uWashington University in St. Louis$$4https://ror.org/01yc7t268$$5ROR 000103653 791__ $$tRyan, J.
