Molecular Chaperones
In most cases proteins fold spontaneously under physiological conditions and do not require any external assistance. This has become evident since the experiments on ribonuclease A conducted by Anfinsen in ‘50s and ‘60s. The list of such “successful” folders has grown since and now includes many two-state proteins catalogued in Folding & Design 3, R81. These proteins fold rapidly and reliably t...
متن کاملAging and molecular chaperones.
Chaperone function plays a key role in sequestering damaged proteins and in repairing proteotoxic damage. Chaperones are induced by environmental stress and are called as stress or heat shock proteins. Here, we summarize the current knowledge about protein damage in aged organisms, about changes in proteolytic degradation, chaperone expression and function in the aging process, as well as the i...
متن کاملmicroRNA-1827 represses MDM2 to positively regulate tumor suppressor p53 and suppress tumorigenesis
The tumor suppressor p53 plays a central role in tumor prevention. The E3 ubiquitin ligase MDM2 is the most critical negative regulator of p53, which binds to p53 and degrades p53 through ubiquitation. MDM2 itself is a transcriptional target of p53, and therefore, MDM2 forms a negative feedback loop with p53 to tightly regulate p53 levels and function. microRNAs (miRNAs) play a key role in regu...
متن کاملp53-induced autophagy and senescence
p53, the " cellular gatekeeper " and the " guardian of the cellular genome " , is the most commonly mutated tumor suppressor in human cancer. In response to diverse stresses (that is, DNA damage, nutrient deprivation, oncogenic activation, hypoxia, oxidative stress, hyperproliferative signals and other forms of stress), p53 can be activated and subsequently functions as a transcription factor t...
متن کاملp53 isoforms regulate aging- and tumor-associated replicative senescence in T lymphocytes.
Cellular senescence contributes to aging and decline in tissue function. p53 isoform switching regulates replicative senescence in cultured fibroblasts and is associated with tumor progression. Here, we found that the endogenous p53 isoforms Δ133p53 and p53β are physiological regulators of proliferation and senescence in human T lymphocytes in vivo. Peripheral blood CD8+ T lymphocytes collected...
