Protein Homeostasis at the Plasma Membrane
The plasma membrane (PM) and endocytic protein quality control (QC) in conjunction with the endosomal sorting machinery either repairs or targets conformationally damaged membrane proteins for lysosomal/vacuolar degradation. Here, we provide an overview of emerging aspects of the underlying mechanisms of PM QC that fulfill a critical role in preserving

Protein Homeostasis, Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one key medical challenge of the aging society and despite a great amount of effort and a huge collection of acquired data on molecular mechanisms that are associated with the onset and progression of this devastating disorder, no causal therapy is in sight.

Selective Autophagy of the Protein Homeostasis Machinery: Ribophagy, Proteaphagy and ER-Phagy
The eukaryotic cell has developed intricate machineries that monitor and maintain proteome homeostasis in order to ensure cellular functionality. This involves the carefully coordinated balance between protein synthesis and degradation pathways, which ...

Protein folding, protein homeostasis, and cancer [PDF]
Proteins fold into their functional 3-dimensional structures from a linear amino acid sequence. In vitro this process is spontaneous; while in vivo it is orchestrated by a specialized set of proteins, called chaperones. Protein folding is an ongoing cellular process, as cellular proteins constantly undergo synthesis and degradation. Here emerging links

Low-Level Saturated Fatty Acid Palmitate Benefits Liver Cells by Boosting Mitochondrial Metabolism via CDK1-SIRT3-CPT2 Cascade. [PDF]
Saturated fatty acids (SFAs) (the "bad" fat), especially palmitate (PA), in the human diet are blamed for potential health risks such as obesity and cancer because of SFA-induced lipotoxicity. However, epidemiological results demonstrate a latent benefit

Callose homeostasis at plasmodesmata: molecular regulators and developmental relevance [PDF]
Plasmodesmata are membrane-lined channels that are located in the plant cell wall and that physically interconnect the cytoplasm and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of adjacent cells.

ANKZF1 helps to eliminate stress-damaged mitochondria by LC3-mediated mitophagy
Mitochondria, the double membrane-bound organelles of endosymbiotic origin, are crucial centers for cellular energy production and several essential metabolic pathways.
