Unfolded Protein Responses With or Without Unfolded Proteins? [PDF]
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site of secretory protein biogenesis. The ER quality control (QC) machinery, including chaperones, ensures the correct folding of secretory proteins. Mutant proteins and environmental stresses can overwhelm the available QC machinery.

Untangling the unfolded protein response [PDF]
Resistance to current cancer therapies has forced scientists to investigate new avenues of therapy distinct from those aimed at single targets, to strategies based on targeting families of proteins, on which cancers rely for their ability to survive stress.

Unfolded Protein Response in Arabidopsis [PDF]
The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a highly regulated signaling pathway that is largely conserved across eukaryotes. It is essential for cell homeostasis under environmental and physiological conditions that perturb the protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Tidy up - The unfolded protein response in sepsis
Pathogens, their toxic byproducts, and the subsequent immune reaction exert different forms of stress and damage to the tissue of the infected host. This stress can trigger specific transcriptional and post-transcriptional programs that have evolved to ...

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Unfolded Protein Response in Neurodegenerative Diseases
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an important organelle involved in protein quality control and cellular homeostasis. The accumulation of unfolded proteins leads to an ER stress, followed by an adaptive response via the activation of the unfolded ...

Eukaryotic cells possess a variety of signaling pathways that prevent accumulation of unfolded and misfolded proteins. Chief among these is the heat shock response (HSR), which is assumed to respond to unfolded proteins in the cytosol and nucleus alike ...

StresSeed: The Unfolded Protein Response During Seed Development
During seed development, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) takes care of the synthesis and structural maturation of very high amounts of storage proteins in a relatively short time.

Wolfram Syndrome protein, Miner1, regulates sulphydryl redox status, the unfolded protein response, and Ca2+ homeostasis. [PDF]
Miner1 is a redox-active 2Fe2S cluster protein. Mutations in Miner1 result in Wolfram Syndrome, a metabolic disease associated with diabetes, blindness, deafness, and a shortened lifespan.
