Identification and in silico expression pattern analysis of Eucalyptus expressed sequencing tags (ESTs) encoding molecular chaperones [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2005
Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) sequencing provides reliable and useful information concerning gene expression patterns in the genomic context. Our group used bioinformatics to identify and annotate 5'EST-contigs belonging to the molecular chaperones ...

Molecular chaperones and selection against mutations [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Direct, 2008
Background Molecular chaperones help to restore the native states of proteins after their destabilization by external stress. It has been proposed that another function of chaperones is to maintain the activity of proteins destabilized by mutation ...

Structural and Kinetic Views of Molecular Chaperones in Multidomain Protein Folding. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci, 2022
Despite recent developments in protein structure prediction, the process of the structure formation, folding, remains poorly understood. Notably, folding of multidomain proteins, which involves multiple steps of segmental folding, is one of the biggest ...

The redox switch that regulates molecular chaperones [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2015
Modification of reactive cysteine residues plays an integral role in redox-regulated reactions. Oxidation of thiolate anions to sulphenic acid can result in disulphide bond formation, or overoxidation to sulphonic acid, representing reversible and ...

Targeting Chaperone/Co-Chaperone Interactions with Small Molecules: A Novel Approach to Tackle Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesCells, 2021
The dysfunction of the proteostasis network is a molecular hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Molecular chaperones are a major component of the

Modulation of protein fate decision by small molecules: targeting molecular chaperone machinery

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2020
Modulation of protein fate decision and protein homeostasis plays a significant role in altering the protein level, which acts as an orientation to develop drugs with new mechanisms.

Molecular Chaperone Receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Extracellular heat shock proteins (HSP) play important roles in cell signaling and immunity. Many of these effects are mediated by surface receptors expressed on a wide range of cell types. We have investigated the nature of such proteins by cloning candidate receptors into cells (CHO-K1) with the rare property of being null for HSP binding. Using this

Differential regulation of circulating levels of molecular chaperones in patients undergoing treatment for periodontal disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Evidence is emerging that molecular chaperones, in addition to their intracellular protein folding actions, can act as intercellular signaling proteins with an ability to modulate leukocyte function. Recent evidence has also shown that these proteins can

The regulatory role of endoplasmic reticulum chaperone proteins in neurodevelopment

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest tubular reticular organelle spanning the cell. As the main site of protein synthesis, Ca2+ homeostasis maintenance and lipid metabolism, the ER plays a variety of essential roles in eukaryotic cells, with ER ...
