The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the secretory pathway are central to the orchestration of intracellular protein trafficking and lipid homeostasis. These dynamic systems comprise a network of ...
Calcium (Ca 2+) drives many cellular functions, though the way it controls quality of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a cellular organelle that synthesizes and transports proteins, is ...
Sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) play a crucial role in lipid biosynthesis. In a recent study, researchers identified a novel cleavage enzyme of SREBP-1c, a key player in fatty acid ...
In the world of protein degradation, sometimes a spanner in the works isn’t an inconvenience but the desired result. Paris-based Enodia Therapeutics has launched out of France’s Pasteur Institute and ...
AKT, protein kinase B; BAX, B-cell lymphoma-2-related protein X; cGAMP, cyclic-guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate; cGAS, cGAMP synthase; dsDNA, double ...
