Cholera Toxin Is Exported from Microsomes by the Sec61p Complex
After endocytosis cholera toxin is transported to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), from where its A1 subunit (CTA1) is assumed to be transferred to the cytosol by an as-yet unknown mechanism. Here, export of CTA1 from the ER to the cytosol was investigated in a cell-free assay using either microsomes loaded with CTA1 by in vitro translation or reconstituted microsomes containing CTA1 purified fr...
متن کاملSec61p Is Required for ERAD-L
Misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are exported to the cytosol for degradation by the proteasome in a process known as ER-associated degradation (ERAD). CPY* is a well characterized ERAD substrate whose degradation is dependent upon the Hrd1 complex. However, although the functions of some of the components of this complex are known, the nature of the protein dislocation chann...
متن کاملSec61p is part of the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation machinery.
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is a cellular pathway for the disposal of misfolded secretory proteins. This process comprises recognition of the misfolded proteins followed by their retro-translocation across the ER membrane into the cytosol in which polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation occur. A variety of data imply that the protein import channel Sec61p has a fu...
متن کاملSec61p serves multiple roles in secretory precursor binding and translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum membrane.
The evolutionarily conserved Sec61 protein complex mediates the translocation of secretory proteins into the endoplasmic reticulum. To investigate the role of Sec61p, which is the main subunit of this complex, we generated recessive, cold-sensitive alleles of sec61 that encode stably expressed proteins with strong defects in translocation. The stage at which posttranslational translocation was ...
متن کاملThe Na+ Channel Inactivation Gate Is a Molecular Complex
Electrical activity in nerve, skeletal muscle, and heart requires finely tuned activity of voltage-gated Na+ channels that open and then enter a nonconducting inactivated state upon depolarization. Inactivation occurs when the gate, the cytoplasmic loop linking domains III and IV of the alpha subunit, occludes the open pore. Subtle destabilization of inactivation by mutation is causally associa...
