Specificity in intracellular protein aggregation and inclusion body formation.
Protein aggregation is widely considered to be a nonspecific coalescence of misfolded proteins, driven by interactions between solvent-exposed hydrophobic surfaces that are normally buried within a protein's interior. Accordingly, abnormal interactions between misfolded proteins with normal cellular constituents has been proposed to underlie the toxicity associated with protein aggregates in ma...
متن کاملSpinal motor neuron protein supersaturation patterns are associated with inclusion body formation in ALS.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a heterogeneous degenerative motor neuron disease linked to numerous genetic mutations in apparently unrelated proteins. These proteins, including SOD1, TDP-43, and FUS, are highly aggregation-prone and form a variety of intracellular inclusion bodies that are characteristic of different neuropathological subtypes of the disease. Contained within these inc...
متن کاملAggregation-Prone Proteins Modulate Huntingtin Inclusion Body Formation in Yeast
Huntington's disease (HD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by a polyglutamine expansion in the huntingtin (HTT) protein. The expression of mutant HTT in the baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae recapitulates many of the cellular phenotypes observed in mammalian HD models. Mutant HTT aggregation and toxicity in yeast is influenced by the presence of the Rnq1p and Sup35p prions, as ...
متن کاملInclusion body myositis with granuloma formation in muscle tissue.
Inclusion body myositis is a form of inflammatory myopathy. We identified 4 cases of inclusion body myositis showing granuloma formation in muscle tissue and aimed to assess the features of this atypical form of inclusion body myositis. We retrospectively reviewed consecutive patients who satisfied European Neuromuscular Centre IBM Research Diagnostic Criteria 2011. Then, we assessed clinical p...
متن کاملUbiquitin versus misfolding: The minimal requirements for inclusion body formation
Ubiquitin-containing inclusion bodies are characteristic features of numerous neurodegenerative diseases, but whether ubiquitin plays a functional role in the formation of these protein deposits is unclear. In this issue, Bersuker et al. (2016. J. Cell Biol http://dx.doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201511024) report that protein misfolding without ubiquitylation is sufficient for translocation into inclusi...
