متن کاملChaperones as Suppressors of Protein Misfolded Oligomer Toxicity
Chaperones have long been recognized to play well defined functions such as to: (i) assist protein folding and promote formation and maintenance of multisubunit complexes; (ii) mediate protein degradation; (iii) inhibit protein aggregation; and (iv) promote disassembly of undesired aberrant protein aggregates. In addition to these well-established functions, it is increasingly clear that chaper...
متن کاملQuadruplex ligands may act as molecular chaperones for tetramolecular quadruplex formation
G-quadruplexes are a family of four-stranded DNA structures, stabilized by G-quartets, that form in the presence of monovalent cations. Efforts are currently being made to identify ligands that selectively bind to G-quadruplex motifs as these compounds may interfere with the telomere structure, telomere elongation/replication and proliferation of cancer cells. The kinetics of quadruplex-ligands...
متن کاملCalnexin and BiP act as sequential molecular chaperones during thyroglobulin folding in the endoplasmic reticulum
Before secretion, newly synthesized thyroglobulin (Tg) folds via a series of intermediates: disulfide-linked aggregates and unfolded monomers-->folded monomers-->dimers. Immediately after synthesis, very little Tg associated with calnexin (a membrane-bound molecular chaperone in the ER), while a larger fraction bound BiP (a lumenal ER chaperone); dissociation from these chaperones showed superf...
متن کاملnon-protein enzymes: rna can act as an enzyme
within the past few years, neat scheme has been overturned by the discovery that rna can act as an enzyme. what does the starting finding of rna enzymes imply? thre first implication is that one can no longer assume a protein lies behind every catalytic activity of the cell. it now appears that several of the operations that tailor an ran molecule into its final form are at least in part cataly...
