The Hsp90 chaperone controls the biogenesis of L7Ae RNPs through conserved machinery
RNA-binding proteins of the L7Ae family are at the heart of many essential ribonucleoproteins (RNPs), including box C/D and H/ACA small nucleolar RNPs, U4 small nuclear RNP, telomerase, and messenger RNPs coding for selenoproteins. In this study, we show that Nufip and its yeast homologue Rsa1 are key components of the machinery that assembles these RNPs. We observed that Rsa1 and Nufip bind se...
متن کاملThe Hsp90 chaperone machinery: from structure to drug development.
Hsp90, an evolutionarily conserved molecular chaperone, is involved in the folding, stabilization, activation, and assembly of a wide range of 'client' proteins, thus playing a central role in many biological processes. Especially, several oncoproteins act as Hsp90 client proteins and tumor cells require higher Hsp90 activity than normal cells to maintain their malignancy. For this reason, Hsp9...
متن کاملThe Hsp70/Hsp90 Chaperone Machinery in Neurodegenerative Diseases
The accumulation of misfolded proteins in the human brain is one of the critical features of many neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Assembles of beta-amyloid (Aβ) peptide-either soluble (oligomers) or insoluble (plaques) and of tau protein, which form neurofibrillary tangles, are the major hallmarks of AD. Chaperones and co-chaperones regulate protein folding and c...
متن کاملImbalances in the Hsp90 Chaperone Machinery: Implications for Tauopathies
The ATP-dependent 90 kDa heat shock protein, Hsp90, is a major regulator of protein triage, from assisting in nascent protein folding to refolding or degrading aberrant proteins. Tau, a microtubule associated protein, aberrantly accumulates in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative diseases, deemed tauopathies. Hsp90 binds to and regulates tau fate in coordination with a diverse g...
متن کاملBiogenesis of small nuclear RNPs.
The nucleus contains a large number of metabolically stable, 60-450-nt-long small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) that exist in the form of ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) (Yu et al., 1999). Each snRNP is composed of an snRNA and a set of associated RNP proteins. Based on their function and intranuclear localization, mammalian snRNPs can be classified into three major classes. The U1, U2, U4, U5 and U6 major...
