Protein Quality Control in the Nucleus
In their natural environment, cells are regularly exposed to various stress conditions that may lead to protein misfolding, but also in the absence of stress, misfolded proteins occur as the result of mutations or failures during protein synthesis. Since such partially denatured proteins are prone to aggregate, cells have evolved several elaborate quality control systems to deal with these pote...
متن کاملDegradation-Mediated Protein Quality Control in the Nucleus
Protein quality control degradation systems rid the cell of aberrant proteins, preventing detrimental effects on normal cellular function. Although such systems have been identified in most subcellular compartments, none have been found in the nucleus. Here, we report the discovery of such a system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is defined by San1p, a ubiquitin-protein ligase that, in conjunct...
متن کاملThe exosome and RNA quality control in the nucleus.
To control the quality of RNA biogenesis in the nucleus, cells use sophisticated molecular machines. These machines recognize and degrade not only RNA trimmings--the leftovers of RNA processing--but also incorrectly processed RNAs that contain defects. By using this mechanism, cells ensure that only high-quality RNAs are engaged in protein synthesis and other cellular processes. The exosome--a ...
متن کاملProtein quality control in the endoplasmic reticulum
THE TOPOLOGICAL BARRIERS DEFINED BY BIOLOGICAL MEMBRANES ARE NOT IMPERMEABLE: from small solutes to intact proteins, specialized transport and translocation mechanisms adjust to the cell's needs. Here, we review the removal of unwanted proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and emphasize the need to extend observations from tissue culture models and simple eukaryotes to studies in whole a...
متن کاملProtein quality control in the bacterial periplasm
The proper functioning of extracytoplasmic proteins requires their export to, and productive folding in, the correct cellular compartment. All proteins in Escherichia coli are initially synthesized in the cytoplasm, then follow a pathway that depends upon their ultimate cellular destination. Many proteins destined for the periplasm are synthesized as precursors carrying an N-terminal signal seq...
