Models of post-translational protein translocation.
Organellar Hsp-70 is required for post-translational translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. The functional role played by Hsp-70 is unknown. However, two operating principles have been suggested. The power stroke model proposes that Hsp-70 undergoes a conformational change, which pulls the precursor protein through the translocation pore, whereas, in the Brownian ratchet...
متن کاملRatcheting in post-translational protein translocation: a mathematical model.
We have developed a non-steady-state mathematical model describing post-translational protein translocation across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Movement of the polypeptide chain through the channel in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane is considered to be a stochastic process which is biased at the lumenal side of the channel by the binding of BiP (Kar2p), a member of the Hsp70 family of...
متن کاملPost-translational protein translocation into thylakoids by the Sec and DeltapH-dependent pathways.
Two distinct protein translocation pathways that employ hydrophobic signal peptides function in the plant thylakoid membrane. These two systems are precursor specific and distinguished by their energy and component requirements. Recent studies have shown that one pathway is homologous to the bacterial general export system called Sec. The other one, called the DeltapH-dependent pathway, was ori...
متن کاملPost-translational modifications of protein biopharmaceuticals.
The majority of therapeutic proteins display one or more post-translational modifications (PTMs). These modifications normally influence the biochemical and therapeutic properties of such proteins. Choosing an expression system capable of generating an appropriate product PTM profile remains one of the most crucial decisions a drug developer must make. This review considers the PTMs most often ...
متن کاملPotential Protein Post-translational Modification in Adiponectin
Post-translational modifications of proteins control many biological processes. This is also an important process in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus. Adiponectin is an insulin-sensitizing adipokine with antidiabetic, anti-atherogenic, anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective properties. The role of posttranslational modifications in regulating the biosynthesis of high molecular weight adipo...
