Oxidative protein biogenesis and redox regulation in the mitochondrial intermembrane space [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mitochondria are organelles that play a central role in cellular metabolism, as they are responsible for processes such as iron/sulfur cluster biogenesis, respiration and apoptosis.

Targeting protein disulfide isomerase with the flavonoid isoquercetin to improve hypercoagulability in advanced cancer.

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2019
BACKGROUND Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is a thiol isomerase secreted by vascular cells that is required for thrombus formation. Quercetin flavonoids inhibit PDI activity and block platelet accumulation and fibrin generation at the site of a ...

Murine tissue factor coagulant activity is critically dependent on the presence of an intact allosteric disulfide

open access: yesHaematologica, 2013
Tissue factor activation (decryption) has been proposed to be dependent on the cysteine 186-cysteine 209 allosteric disulfide in the tissue factor extracellular domain.

Protein disulfide isomerase interacts with tau protein and inhibits its fibrillization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Tau protein is implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders such as tauopathies including Alzheimer disease, and Tau fibrillization is thought to be related to neuronal toxicity. Physiological inhibitors of Tau fibrillization

Cytosolic redox components regulate protein homeostasis via additional localisation in the mitochondrial intermembrane space [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Oxidative protein folding is confined to the bacterial periplasm, endoplasmic reticulum and the mitochondrial intermembrane space. Maintaining a redox balance requires the presence of reductive pathways.

Recognition and ER Quality Control of Misfolded Formylglycine-Generating Enzyme by Protein Disulfide Isomerase

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is a fatal, inherited lysosomal storage disorder characterized by reduced activities of all sulfatases in patients.

Ricin trafficking in plant and mammalian cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Ricin is a heterodimeric plant protein that is potently toxic to mammalian and many other eukaryotic cells. It is synthesized and stored in the endosperm cells of maturing Ricinus communis seeds (castor beans).

Prolyl 4-hydroxlase activity is essential for development and cuticle formation in the human infective parasitic nematode Brugia malayi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases (C-P4H) are required for formation of extracellular matrices in higher eukaryotes. These enzymes convert proline residues within the repeat regions of collagen polypeptides to 4-hydroxyproline, a modification essential for ...

Platelet Protein Disulfide Isomerase Promotes Glycoprotein Ibα-Mediated Platelet-Neutrophil Interactions Under Thromboinflammatory Conditions

open access: yesCirculation, 2019
Background: Platelet-neutrophil interactions contribute to vascular occlusion and tissue damage in thromboinflammatory disease. Platelet glycoprotein Ib&agr; (GPIb&agr;), a key receptor for the cell-cell interaction, is believed to be constitutively ...
