Functional Differences in Yeast Protein Disulfide Isomerases
PDI1 is the essential gene encoding protein disulfide isomerase in yeast. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome, however, contains four other nonessential genes with homology to PDI1: MPD1, MPD2, EUG1, and EPS1. We have investigated the effects of simultaneous deletions of these genes. In several cases, we found that the ability of the PDI1 homologues to restore viability to a pdi1-deleted strain...
متن کاملOverexpression of thiol/disulfide isomerases enhances membrane fusion directed by the Newcastle disease virus fusion protein.
Newcastle disease virus (NDV) fusion (F) protein directs membrane fusion, which is required for virus entry and cell-cell fusion. We have previously shown that free thiols are present in cell surface-expressed NDV F protein and that blocking the production of free thiols by thiol-disulfide exchange inhibitors inhibited the membrane fusion mediated by F protein (J Virol. 81:2328-2339, 2007). Ext...
متن کاملHPW-RX40 prevents human platelet activation by attenuating cell surface protein disulfide isomerases
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) present at platelet surfaces has been considered to play an important role in the conformational change and activation of the integrin glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa) and thus enhances platelet aggregation. Growing evidences indicated that platelet surface PDI may serve as a potential target for developing of a new class of antithrombotic agents. In the pres...
متن کاملInactivation of mammalian Ero1α is catalysed by specific protein disulfide-isomerases
Disulfide formation within the endoplasmic reticulum is a complex process requiring a disulfide exchange protein such as PDI (protein disulfide-isomerase) and a mechanism to form disulfides de novo. In mammalian cells, the major pathway for de novo disulfide formation involves the enzyme Ero1α (endoplasmic reticulum oxidase 1α) which couples oxidation of thiols to the reduction of molecular oxy...
متن کاملThioredoxin-interacting protein regulates protein disulfide isomerases and endoplasmic reticulum stress
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is responsible for protein folding, modification, and trafficking. Accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins represents the condition of ER stress and triggers the unfolded protein response (UPR), a key mechanism linking supply of excess nutrients to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in obesity. The ER harbors proteins that participate in protein folding...
