Autorepression of yeast Hsp70 cochaperones by intramolecular interactions involving their J-domains
Paolo De Los Rios, Pierre Goloubinoff, Satyam Tiwari, Mathieu Rebeaud, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Adélaïde Alice Mohr
The 70 kDa heat shock protein (Hsp70) chaperones control protein homeostasis in all ATP-containing cellular compartments. J-domain proteins (JDPs) coevolved with Hsp70s to trigger ATP hydrolysis and catalytically upload various substrate polypeptides in ne ...

In phenylketonuria, absence or malfunction of the phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme results in toxic accumulation of phenylalanine in the body. An injectable recombinant enzyme therapy was recently approved and has the potential to improve the quality of li ...
EPFL2021Proteasomal and lysosomal clearance of faulty secretory proteins: ER-associated degradation (ERAD) and ER-to-lysosome-associated degradation (ERLAD) pathways
About 40% of the eukaryotic cell's proteins are inserted co- or post-translationally in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where they attain the native structure under the assistance of resident molecular chaperones and folding enzymes. Subsequently, these pr ...
20193D correlative electron microscopy reveals continuity of Brucella-containing vacuoles with the endoplasmic reticulum
Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Shyan Huey Low
Entry of the facultative intracellular pathogen Brucella into host cells results in the formation of endosomal Brucella-containing vacuoles (eBCVs) that initially traffic along the endocytic pathway. eBCV acidification triggers the expression of a type IV ...

Targeted cancer therapy is a very promising concept; however, small molecule inhibitors only exist for a limited number of oncoproteins and resistance development limits their clinical use. Different engineered non-antibody scaffolds are being explored to ...
EPFL2018Cytosolic Proteostasis Networks of the Mitochondrial Stress Response
Johan Auwerx, Davide D'Amico, Vincenzo Sorrentino
Mitochondrial stress requires timely intervention to prevent mitochondria' and cellular dysfunction. Re-establishing the correct protein homeostasis is crucial for coping with mitochondria' stress and maintaining cellular homeostasis. The best-characterize ...
Elsevier Science London2017Endosomes: Guardians Against [Ru(Phen)3]2+ Photo-action In Endothelial Cells During In Vivo pO2 Detection?
Georges Wagnières, Veronika Huntosova
Phototoxicity is a side-effect of in vitro and in vivo oxygen partial pressure (pO(2)) detection by luminescence lifetime measurement methods. Dichlorotris(1,10-phenanthroline)-ruthenium(II) hydrate (Ru(Phen)(3)) is a water soluble pO(2) probe associ ...
Royal Soc Chemistry2014Prototype Foamy Virus Bet Impairs the Dimerization and Cytosolic Solubility of Human APOBEC3G
Cellular cytidine deaminases from the APOBEC3 family are potent restriction factors able to block the replication of retroviruses. Consequently, retroviruses have evolved a variety of different mechanisms to counteract inhibition by APOBEC3 proteins. Lenti ...
Amer Soc Microbiology2013ERAD and ERAD tuning: disposal of cargo and of ERAD regulators from the mammalian ER
Maurizio Molinari, Riccardo Bernasconi
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site of maturation for secretory and membrane proteins in eukaryotic cells. Unsuccessful folding attempts are eventually interrupted and most folding-defective polypeptides are dislocated across the ER membrane and deg ...
2011Advanced Fluorescence Microscopy to Study Plasma Membrane Protein Dynamics
Membrane protein dynamics is of great importance for living organisms. The precise localization of proteins composing a synapse on the membrane facing a nerve terminus is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system. In muscle fibers, the nicotin ...
