Loss of KEAP1 Causes an Accumulation of Nondegradative Organelles [PDF]
KEAP1 is a cytoplasmic protein that functions as an adaptor for the Cullin-3-based ubiquitin E3 ligase system, which regulates the degradation of many proteins, including NFE2L2/NRF2 and p62/SQSTM1.

WDR23 regulates NRF2 independently of KEAP1 [PDF]
Cellular adaptation to stress is essential to ensure organismal survival. NRF2/NFE2L2 is a key determinant of xenobiotic stress responses, and loss of negative regulation by the KEAP1-CUL3 proteasome system is implicated in several chemo- and radiation-resistant cancers. Advantageously using C.

Detection of thermal shift in cellular Keap1 by protein-protein interaction inhibitors using immunoblot- and fluorescence microplate-based assays [PDF]
Summary: Pharmacologic inhibition of the protein-protein interaction (PPI) interface of the Keap1:Nrf2 complex, which leads to Nrf2 activation and cytoprotective gene expression, offers a promising strategy for disease prevention and treatment.

Keap1/Nrf2 Signaling Pathway [PDF]
Nuclear factor, erythroid 2-like transcription factor 2 (Nrf2) and its cytoplasmic inhibitor, kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), comprise a redox-responsive endogenous antioxidant defense module that orchestrates the expression of cytoprotective genes to maintain homeostasis [...]

Roles of autophagy and p62 /SQSTM1 in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion
Autophagy is a lysosomal dependent degradation system, and p62 itself is an importantprotein carrier to facilitate the removal of damaged proteins by proteasomes and autophagosomes. p62 playsan important role in selective autophagy such as mitochondrial

NF-E2-related factor 2 (NRF2), an antioxidant transcription factor, is activated in autophagy-deficient mice due to the accumulations of p62/SQSTM1 and its subsequent interaction with Kelch-like-ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), an adaptor component for ...

The KEAP1–NRF2 System in Cancer [PDF]
Cancer cells first adapt to the microenvironment and then propagate. Mutations in tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes are frequently found in cancer cells. Comprehensive genomic analyses have identified somatic mutations and other alterations in the KEAP1 or NRF2 genes and in well-known tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes, such as TP53, CDKN2A, PTEN ...

Tributyltin activates the Keap1–Nrf2 pathway via a macroautophagy-independent reduction in Keap1
Tributyltin (TBT) is an environmental chemical, which was used as an antifouling agent for ships. Although its use has been banned, it is still persistently present in ocean sediments. Although TBT reportedly causes various toxicity in mammals, few studies on the mechanisms of biological response against TBT toxicity exist.
