Regulation of CLC-1 chloride channel biosynthesis by FKBP8 and Hsp90β. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mutations in human CLC-1 chloride channel are associated with the skeletal muscle disorder myotonia congenita. The disease-causing mutant A531V manifests enhanced proteasomal degradation of CLC-1.

The Emerging Roles of Intracellular PCSK9 and Their Implications in Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Metabolic Diseases

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
The importance of the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type-9 (PCSK9) gene was quickly recognized by the scientific community as the third locus for familial hypercholesterolemia. By promoting the degradation of the low-density lipoprotein receptor

Co-crystalization and in vitro biological characterization of 5-Aryl-4-(5-substituted-2-4-dihydroxyphenyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole Hsp90 inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A potential therapeutic strategy for targeting cancer that has gained much interest is the inhibition of the ATP binding and ATPase activity of the molecular chaperone Hsp90.

Directed motion emerging from two coupled random processes: Translocation of a chain through a membrane nanopore driven by binding proteins

open access: yes, 2005
We investigate the translocation of a stiff polymer consisting of M monomers through a nanopore in a membrane, in the presence of binding particles (chaperones) that bind onto the polymer, and partially prevent backsliding of the polymer through the pore.

Assembly and beyond – The structure and functions of chaperones of the proteasome

open access: yesBiomedical Research Journal, 2016
The 26S proteasome is the major protease machinery in eukaryotic cells responsible for spatio-temporally regulated turnover of the proteome and therefore critical to the maintenance of homeostasis.

Therapeutic Potential of the Hsp90/Cdc37 Interaction in Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, and Parkinson’s are devastating neurodegenerative diseases that are prevalent in the aging population. Patient care costs continue to rise each year, because there is currently no cure or disease modifying treatments for these ...

Ordered and Ushered; the Assembly and Translocation of the Adhesive Type I and P Pili

open access: yesBiology, 2013
Type I and P pili are chaperone-usher pili of uropathogenic Escherichia coli, which allow bacteria to adhere to host cell receptors. Pilus formation and secretion are orchestrated by two accessory proteins, a chaperone, which catalyses pilus subunit ...

CCT and Cullin1 Regulate the TORC1 Pathway to Promote Dendritic Arborization in Health and Disease

open access: yesCells
The development of cell-type-specific dendritic arbors is integral to the proper functioning of neurons within their circuit networks. In this study, we examine the regulatory relationship between the cytosolic chaperonin CCT, key insulin pathway genes ...

Coupling de novo protein folding with subunit exchange into pre-formed oligomeric protein complexes: the ‘heritable template’ hypothesis

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2016
Despite remarkable advances in synthetic biology, the fact remains that it takes a living cell to make a new living cell. The information encoded in the genome is necessary to direct assembly of all cellular components, but it may not be sufficient. Some
