Disulfide Bond–Modified Proteomics Reveals the Effects of Riboflavin on Protein Folding Dynamics
Riboflavin deficiency impairs oxidative protein folding, causing ER misfolded protein accumulation, CHOP activation, and apoptosis, revealing a role of riboflavin in proteostasis. ABSTRACT Riboflavin is a crucial micronutrient essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis, acting as an important precursor for flavoproteins that utilize flavin ...

Thiol isomerase ERp18 enhances platelet activation and arterial thrombosis
Background: Thiol isomerases regulate the thiol-disulfide exchange of functional proteins in cells. Using genetically modified mouse models and inhibitors, we and others demonstrated that 7 thiol isomerases (ERp57, protein diisulfide isomerase, ERp72 ...

Importance of disulphide bonds for vaccinia virus L1R protein function
L1R, a myristylated late gene product of vaccinia virus, is essential for formation of infectious intracellular mature virions (IMV). In its absence, only viral particles arrested at an immature stage are detected and no infectious progeny virus is ...

DsbG, a Protein Disulfide Isomerase with Chaperone Activity [PDF]
DsbG, a protein disulfide isomerase present in the periplasm of Escherichia coli, is shown to function as a molecular chaperone. Stoichiometric amounts of DsbG are sufficient to prevent the thermal aggregation of two classical chaperone substrate proteins, citrate synthase and luciferase.

Mitochondria‐endoplasmic reticulum contact sites (MERCS) are areas where the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum closely interact. In this study, we utilize synthetic organelle glues to artificially engineer MERCS for regulating cardiomyocyte development, through which the immature and chemo‐plasticity issues of undifferentiated cells are addressed.

Characterising the expression and interactions of the Endoplasmic Reticulum Oxidoreductase Erol β [PDF]
Proteins destined for the secretory pathway and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident proteins are targeted to the ER through an N-terminal signal sequence. Proteins then follow a post-translational maturation process to fold into functional proteins.
