Disruption of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System and Elevated Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Epilepsy
The epilepsies are a broad group of conditions characterized by repeated seizures, and together are one of the most common neurological disorders. Additionally, epilepsy is comorbid with many neurological disorders, including lysosomal storage diseases ...

In this review, we focus on how inhibitors of Hsp90 can help prevent the resistance to anti-cancer drugs by synergistically increasing their cancer killing abilities and thereby allowing them to function at much lower concentrations than normally used ...

Single-molecule fluorescence studies of Protein Folding and Molecular Chaperones [PDF]
Folding of newly synthesized proteins is an essential part of protein biosynthesis and misfolding can result in protein aggregation which can also lead to several severe diseases.

Abnormal Copper Homeostasis: Mechanisms and Roles in Neurodegeneration
As a cofactor of proteins and enzymes involved in critical molecular pathways in mammals and low eukaryotes, copper is a transition metal essential for life.

Proteome-Wide Analyis of Chaperonin-Dependent Protein Folding in Escherichia coli [PDF]
In Escherichia coli, the cylindrical chaperonin GroEL and its cofactor GroES promote the folding of a fraction of newly synthesized polypeptide chains by acting as an Anfinsen cage.

CSPα—Chaperoning Presynaptic Proteins
Synaptic transmission relies critically on precisely regulated and exceedingly fast protein-protein interactions that involve voltage-gated channels, the exocytosis/endocytosis machinery as well as signaling pathways. Although we have gained an ever more
