Regulation of CFTR chloride channel trafficking by Nedd4-2: role of SGK1
Introduction: The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride (Cl−) channel is an essential component of epithelial Cl− transport systems in many organs. CFTR is mainly expressed in the lung and other tissues, such as testis, duodenum, trachea and kidney. The ubiquitin ligase neural precursor cells expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 4-2 (Nedd4-2...

متن کاملVersatile protein tag, SUMO: its enzymology and biological function.
Small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) is a member of a ubiquitin-like protein family that regulates cellular function of a variety of target proteins. SUMO and ubiquitin are synthesized as precursors that need to be processed prior to conjugation to target proteins, and their mature forms have a similar tertiary structure. The mechanism for SUMO conjugation is also analogous to that of the ub...
متن کاملThe Proteasome and the Delicate Balance between Destruction and Rescue
PLoS Biology | http://biology.plosjournals.org Inside eukaryotic cells there is a massive protein complex called the proteasome whose raison d’être is to remove unnecessary proteins by breaking them down into short peptides. The proteasome is thus responsible for an important aspect of cellular regulation because the timely and controlled proteolysis of key cellular factors regulates numerous b...
