Targeting the Ubiquitin–Proteasome System for Cancer [PDF]

MedComm
Ubiquitin is a highly conserved small molecule that exists in large quantities in eukaryotic cells and plays a crucial role in protein quality control by phagocytosis and degradation of ubiquitin‐modified proteins.

The transcription factor ANAC017 links mitochondrial retrograde signaling with the ubiquitin–proteasome system to control mitochondrial function in Arabidopsis [PDF]

Plant Communications
Mitochondrial biogenesis requires the import of more than a thousand proteins encoded by nuclear DNA. The translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane (TOM) complex serves as the primary gateway for specific recognition of precursor proteins, which ...

Balanced activities of Hsp70 and the ubiquitin proteasome system underlie cellular protein homeostasis

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
To counteract proteotoxic stress and cellular aging, protein quality control (PQC) systems rely on the refolding, degradation and sequestration of misfolded proteins.

Chlorogenic acid modulates the ubiquitin–proteasome system in stroke animal model

Laboratory Animal Research, 2022
Background Chlorogenic acid, a phenolic compound, has potent antioxidant and neuroprotective properties. The ubiquitin–proteasome system is an important regulators of neurodevelopment and modulators of neuronal function.

Ubiquitin–proteasome system involvement in Huntington’s disease [PDF]

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2014
Huntington's disease (HD) is a genetic autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disease caused by the expansion of a CAG repeat in the huntingtin (htt) gene. This triplet expansion encodes a polyglutamine stretch (polyQ) in the N-terminus of the high molecular weight (348-kDa) and ubiquitously expressed protein htt. Normal individuals have between 6 and 35

Substrate-specific effects of natural genetic variation on proteasome activity.

PLoS Genetics, 2023
Protein degradation is an essential biological process that regulates protein abundance and removes misfolded and damaged proteins from cells. In eukaryotes, most protein degradation occurs through the stepwise actions of two functionally distinct ...

Targeted Protein Degradation: Principles and Applications of the Proteasome

Cells, 2023
The proteasome is a multi-catalytic protease complex that is involved in protein quality control via three proteolytic activities (i.e., caspase-, trypsin-, and chymotrypsin-like activities).
