Novel Chaperones RrGroEL and RrGroES for Activity and Stability Enhancement of Nitrilase in Escherichia coli and Rhodococcus ruber

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
For large-scale bioproduction, thermal stability is a crucial property for most industrial enzymes. A new method to improve both the thermal stability and activity of enzymes is of great significance.

Proteostasis in the Male and Female Germline: A New Outlook on the Maintenance of Reproductive Health

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
For fully differentiated, long lived cells the maintenance of protein homeostasis (proteostasis) becomes a crucial determinant of cellular function and viability.

UPR proteins IRE1 and PERK switch BiP from chaperone to ER stress sensor

open access: yesNature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2019
BiP is a major endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone and is suggested to act as primary sensor in the activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR). How BiP operates as a molecular chaperone and as an ER stress sensor is unknown.

Calreticulin: Roles in Cell-Surface Protein Expression

open access: yesMembranes, 2014
In order to perform their designated functions, proteins require precise subcellular localizations. For cell-surface proteins, such as receptors and channels, they are able to transduce signals only when properly targeted to the cell membrane ...

HtrA chaperone activity contributes to host cell binding in Campylobacter jejuni

open access: yesGut Pathogens, 2011
Background Acute gastroenteritis caused by the food-borne pathogen Campylobacter jejuni is associated with attachment of bacteria to the intestinal epithelium and subsequent invasion of epithelial cells. In C.

Extracellular Chaperones

open access: yes, 2010
The maintenance of the levels and correct folding state of proteins (proteostasis) is a fundamental prerequisite for life. Life has evolved complex mechanisms to maintain proteostasis and many of these that operate inside cells are now well understood.

The chaperone effect in scientific publishing [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Experience plays a critical role in crafting high-impact scientific work. This is particularly evident in top multidisciplinary journals, where a scientist is unlikely to appear as senior author if he or she has not previously published within the same ...

Proteostasis collapse, a hallmark of aging, hinders the chaperone-Start network and arrests cells in G1

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Loss of proteostasis and cellular senescence are key hallmarks of aging, but direct cause-effect relationships are not well understood. We show that most yeast cells arrest in G1 before death with low nuclear levels of Cln3, a key G1 cyclin extremely ...

Cathepsin V regulates cell cycle progression and histone stability in the nucleus of breast cancer cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: We previously identified that Cathepsin V (CTSV) expression is associated with poor prognosis in ER+ breast cancer, particularly within the Luminal A subtype.

Similarities and Differences of Hsp70, hsc70, Grp78 and Mortalin as Cancer Biomarkers and Drug Targets

open access: yesCells, 2021
Background: Upregulation of Heath Shock Protein 70 (HSP70) chaperones supports cancer cell survival. Their high homology causes a challenge to differentiate them in experimental or prevention and treatment strategies.
