Ricinus Agglutinin Induced Autophagy in Glioblastoma Cells [PDF]
Ricinus agglutinin (RA) is a heterodimer consisting of two chains known as chain A and chain B respectively. The molecular weight of RA is 120 kD. RA is highly toxic to normal cells due to its ability to bind to the carbohydrate moieties present on the ...

Protecting the proteome: Eukaryotic cotranslational quality control pathways. [PDF]
The correct decoding of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) into proteins is an essential cellular task. The translational process is monitored by several quality control (QC) mechanisms that recognize defective translation complexes in which ribosomes are stalled on

We describe the CD9 interactome in epithelial cells for the first time. The interactome is diverse and dynamic and changes dependent on infection with specific bacteria. We validate these data by showing functional interaction between CD9 with CD44 or CD147. We therefore demonstrate that CD9 is a universal organiser of bacterial adhesion platforms able

The p53-mediated nucleolar stress response associated with inhibition of ribosomal RNA transcription was previously shown to potentiate killing of tumor cells. Here, we asked whether targeting of ribosome biogenesis can be used as the basis for selective

Expression of the alpha-thionin gene from barley in tobacco confers enhanced resistance to bacterial pathogens [PDF]
Thionins are cysteine-rich, 5 kDa polypeptides which are toxic to plant pathogens in vitro. Expression of the gene encoding alpha-thionin from barley endosperm, under the 35S promoter from cauliflower mosaic virus, conferred to transgenic tobacco ...

Proteostasis ensures proper protein folding, modification, and degradation, while its impairment triggers ER stress. Chronic ER stress and maladaptive UPR via the CHOP–ERO1 axis remodel ERMCs, altering calcium signaling and mitochondrial metabolism.
