Proteolytic processing of tau.
Tau aggregation is a hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases, including AD (Alzheimer's disease), although the mechanism underlying tau aggregation remains unclear. Recent studies show that the proteolysis of tau plays an important role in both tau aggregation and neurodegeneration. On one hand, truncation of tau may generate amyloidogenic tau fragments that initiate the aggregation of t...
متن کاملProteolytic Processing in Development and Leukemogenesis
There are now numerous examples in the hematopoietic system of genes that are critical for normal hematopoietic development, but when mutated, rearranged, or overexpressed, contribute to leukemogenesis. Two papers in this issue of Cell provide a fascinating twist on this paradigm, and suggest that proteolytic processing of certain of these genes plays an important role both in development and i...
متن کاملProteolytic Processing of ErbB4 in Breast Cancer
ErbB4 is a receptor tyrosine kinase that can signal by a mechanism involving proteolytic release of intracellular and extracellular receptor fragments. Proteolysis-dependent signaling of ErbB4 has been proposed to be enhanced in breast cancer, mainly based on immunohistochemical localization of intracellular epitopes in the nuclei. To more directly address the processing of ErbB4 in vivo, an EL...
متن کاملProteolytic processing in the secretory pathway.
Many cellular processes, including embryogenesis (1–4), gene expression (5), cell cycle (6), programmed cell death (7), intracellular protein targeting (8) and endocrine/neural functions (9–13) are regulated by limited proteolysis of precursor proteins (14, 15). These functions are carried out by proteolytic enzyme families that are strategically localized within cells or on cell surfaces (3, 5...
متن کاملProteolytic processing activates a viral superantigen
Mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) superantigens (vSAg) undergo proteolytic processing at residues that have been demonstrated in vitro to be recognition sites for the endoprotease furin. To examine the role of furin in the presentation of vSAg7 to T cells, the vSAg7 and class II MHC IEk genes were introduced into Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells (furin-positive) and into a furin-negative CHO va...
