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

CBS Domain Proteins Regulate Redox Homeostasis [PDF]
fluorescent protein fusion localized to the chloroplast. In the chloroplast, CBSX1 interacted with four distinct thioredoxins, as shown by yeast two-hybrid and in vitro pull-down studies. The interaction of CBSX1 and thioredoxin also occurred in living plant cells, as shown by bimolecular fluorescence complementation analysis in tobacco (Nicotiana ...

Insulin-Degrading Enzyme Regulates mRNA Processing and May Interact with the CCR4-NOT Complex
Insulin-degrading enzyme is a zinc metalloprotease that degrades low-molecular-weight substrates, including insulin. Ubiquitous expression, high evolutionary conservation, upregulation of Ide in stress situations, and literature findings suggest a ...
