Heart Failure and Protein Quality Control [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2006
The heart is constantly under mechanical, metabolic, and thermal stress, even at baseline physiological conditions, and cardiac stress may increase as a result of environmental or intrinsic pathological insults. Cardiomyocytes are continuously challenged to efficiently and properly fold nascent polypeptides, traffic them to their appropriate cellular ...

Membrane protein folding and quality control

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2021
Membrane proteins account for a quarter of cellular proteins, and most are synthesised at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Insertion and folding of polypeptides in the membrane environment is prone to error, necessitating diverse quality control systems.

Distinct Mechanisms of Pathogenic DJ-1 Mutations in Mitochondrial Quality Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The deglycase and chaperone protein DJ-1 is pivotal for cellular oxidative stress responses and mitochondrial quality control. Mutations in PARK7, encoding DJ-1, are associated with early-onset familial Parkinson’s disease and lead to pathological ...

Protein quality control at the Golgi

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2022
The majority of the proteome in eukaryotic cells is targeted to organelles. To maintain protein homeostasis (proteostasis), distinct protein quality control (PQC) machineries operate on organelles, where they detect misfolded proteins, orphaned and mis-localized proteins and selectively target these proteins into different ubiquitin-dependent or ...

Antibacterial mechanism of areca nut essential oils against Streptococcus mutans by targeting the biofilm and the cell membrane

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionDental caries is one of the most common and costly biofilm-dependent oral diseases in the world. Streptococcus mutans is the major cariogenic pathogen of dental caries. S.

Regulation of CLC-1 chloride channel biosynthesis by FKBP8 and Hsp90β. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mutations in human CLC-1 chloride channel are associated with the skeletal muscle disorder myotonia congenita. The disease-causing mutant A531V manifests enhanced proteasomal degradation of CLC-1.

Infectivity and Transmissibility of Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease Associated Vibrio parahaemolyticus in Frozen Shrimp Archived at −80 °C

open access: yesFishes, 2022
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) caused by Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VpAHPND) has been reported in commodity shrimp, but the potential risk of its global spread via frozen shrimp in the shrimp trade is yet to be fully explored.

Protein quality control of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are glutamate-gated cation channels that mediate excitatory neurotransmission and are critical for synaptic development and plasticity in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). Functional NMDARs typically form

Different outcome of sarcoglycan missense mutation between human and mouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sarcoglycanopathies are rare autosomic limb girdle muscular dystrophies caused by mutations in one of the genes coding for sarcoglycan (α, β, δ, and γ-sarcoglycans).

Protein quality control in the nucleus [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2016
The nucleus is the repository for the eukaryotic cell's genetic blueprint, which must be protected from harm to ensure survival. Multiple quality control (QC) pathways operate in the nucleus to maintain the integrity of the DNA, the fidelity of the DNA code during replication, its transcription into mRNA, and the functional structure of the proteins ...
