Regulated increase in folding capacity prevents unfolded protein stress in the ER [PDF]
Stimulation of thyrocytes with thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) leads to a morphological change and a massive increase in thyroglobulin (Tg) production.

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.

Unfolded States of Heme Proteins [PDF]
Cytochromes adopt discrete structures when the heme cofactor is present. Since the heme provides crucial contacts in the native protein, this hydrophobic prosthetic group plays an important role in the folding mechanism and introduces interesting ...

The unfolded protein response in multiple sclerosis
The unfolded protein response (UPR) occurs in response to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress caused by the accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the ER.

Bidirectional crosstalk between endoplasmic reticulum stress and mTOR signaling [PDF]
Many cellular processes including apoptosis, autophagy, translation, energy metabolism, and inflammation are controlled by the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathway, also known as the unfolded ...

Uterine Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Its Unfolded Protein Response May Regulate Caspase 3 Activation in the Pregnant Mouse Uterus [PDF]
We have previously proposed that uterine caspase-3 may modulate uterine contractility in a gestationally regulated fashion. The objective of this study was to determine the mechanism by which uterine caspase-3 is activated and consequently controlled in ...

Fibrillary Glomerulonephritis, DNAJB9, and the Unfolded Protein Response
Background: Fibrillary glomerulonephritis (FGN) is found in approximately 1% of native kidney biopsies and was traditionally defined by glomerular deposition of fibrils larger than amyloid (12–24 nm diameter) composed of polyclonal IgG.

EFP1 is an ER stress-induced glycoprotein which interacts with the pro-apoptotic protein Par-4 [PDF]
We have isolated the rat ortholog of EFP1 (EF-hand binding protein 1) as a novel interaction partner of the pro-apoptotic protein Par-4 (prostate apoptosis response-4).
