The unfolded protein response
Where does the UPR function? Between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. All secreted proteins and proteins that reside in secretory compartments translocate as nascent peptide chains into the ER, where they may undergo folding, modification and assembly before assuming their functional conformations. The ER maintains a specialized oxidizing environment to aid ch...
متن کاملThe unfolded protein response.
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a principal site for folding and maturation of transmembrane, secretory and ERresident proteins. Perturbations that alter ER homeostasis can lead to accumulation of unfolded proteins (UPs), which is a threat to all living cells. To cope with the stress, cells activate an intracellular signaling pathway – the unfolded protein response (UPR). The UPR is an integr...
متن کاملThe unfolded protein response in vanishing white matter disease.
Leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter (VWM) is an autosomal-recessive disorder in which febrile infections may provoke major neurologic deterioration. Characteristic pathologic findings include cystic white matter degeneration, foamy oligodendrocytes, dysmorphic astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, oligodendrocytosis, and apoptotic losses of oligodendrocytes. VWM is caused by mutations in...
متن کاملP135: The Role of Amyloid Beta-Peptides and Tau Protein in Alzheimer\'s Disease
Alzheimer's desease is the most common age-related neurodegenerative disorder, and cognitive problems such as defects in learning and memory are of its symptoms. Among the factors involved in the pathogenesis of the disease are biochemical disorders in protein production, oxidative stress, decreased acetylcholine secretion and inflammation of the brain tissue. Extra-neuronal accumulation ...
