Resumen
La respuesta de la proteína desplegada (UPR) se coordina con la degradación de la proteína asociada a la ER (ERAD) para manejar las proteínas mal plegadas. Esta asociación es crucial para la viabilidad celular, incluso sin estrés agudo.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Biología celular Biología celular.
- Biología Molecular Biología Molecular
- La bioquímica es la bioquímica.
Sus antecedentes:
- La respuesta proteica desplegada (UPR) es una respuesta al estrés celular que se origina en el retículo endoplasmático (ER).
- Investigaciones anteriores sugirieron que la UPR controlaba principalmente las chaperonas residentes en ER y la biosíntesis de fosfolípidos.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Definir exhaustivamente los objetivos de transcripción del EPU.
- Investigar la interacción entre la UPR y la degradación de las proteínas asociadas a la ER (ERAD).
Principales métodos:
- Se emplearon microarrays de ADN para evaluar los cambios transcripcionales globales inducidos por el UPR.
- Los estudios involucraron el análisis de los objetivos de la EPU involucrados en ERAD.
Principales resultados:
- El UPR influye en una gama más amplia de ER y las funciones de las vías secretoras de lo que se entendía anteriormente.
- El ERAD eficiente depende de una UPR intacta, y la activación de la UPR mejora la capacidad del ERAD.
- La pérdida de la función ERAD resulta en una activación continua de la UPR.
- La pérdida combinada de ERAD y UPR reduce significativamente la viabilidad celular.
Conclusiones:
- El UPR y el ERAD son procesos dinámicamente vinculados esenciales para la eliminación coordinada de proteínas mal plegadas.
- Estas respuestas son críticas para mantener la homeostasis celular, incluso en condiciones basales.

02:58Regulated Protein Degradation
It is vital to regulate the activity of enzymatic as well as non-enzymatic proteins inside the cell. This can be achieved either through creating a balance between their rate of synthesis and degradation or regulating the intrinsic activity of the protein. Both these regulation mechanisms play an essential role in the normal functioning of cells.
Protein degradation plays two important roles in the cells. It helps to protect cells from misfolded or damaged proteins before they lead to a...

01:34Directing Proteins to the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
The organelle-specific signaling sequences direct proteins synthesized in the cytosol to their final destination like ER, mitochondria, peroxisomes, etc. Some of the proteins directed to ER are then trafficked via vesicles to other organelles within the cell or the extracellular environment through the Golgi complex. For example, the rough ER synthesizes soluble proteins for transportation to the lysosomes or secretion out of the cell. It can also synthesize transmembrane proteins that can...
01:29Protein Folding Quality Check in the RER
ER is the primary site for the maturation and folding of soluble and transmembrane secretory proteins. The calnexin cycle is a specific chaperone system that folds and assesses the confirmation of N-glycosylated proteins before they can exit the ER lumen. The primary players of this quality check pipeline are the lectins, ER-resident chaperones, and a glucosyl transferase enzyme. In case the calnexin system in the lumen fails to salvage a misfolded protein, it is transported to the cytoplasm...
01:37The Unfolded Protein Response
The ER is the hub of protein synthesis in a cell. It has robust systems to quality control protein folding and also for degradation of terminally misfolded proteins. Under normal conditions, a small proportion of misfolded proteins that cannot be salvaged need to be transported to the cytoplasm by the ER-associated degradation or ERAD pathways. However, if the ERAD cannot handle the misfolded proteins, the cell activates the unfolded protein response or UPR to adjust the protein folding...
01:32Export of Misfolded Proteins out of the ER
After folding, the ER assesses the quality of secretory and membrane proteins. The correctly folded proteins are cleared by the calnexin cycle for transport to their final destination, while misfolded proteins are held back in the ER lumen. The ER chaperones attempt to unfold and refold the misfolded proteins but sometimes fail to achieve the correct native conformation. Such terminally misfolded proteins are then exported to the cytosol by ER-associated degradation or ERAD pathway for...
01:31Regulation of the Unfolded Protein Response
Inositol-requiring kinase one or IRE1 is the most conserved eukaryotic unfolded protein response (UPR) receptor. It is a type I transmembrane protein kinase receptor with a distinctive site-specific RNase activity. As the binding mechanics of the misfolded proteins with the N-terminal domain of IRE-1 are unclear, three binding models — direct, indirect, and allosteric -- are proposed for receptor activation. Nevertheless, it is known that once a misfolded protein associates with IRE1, it...
