Calcium dynamics and endoplasmic reticular function in the regulation of protein synthesis: implications for cell growth and adaptability

Brostrom, Margaret A, Brostrom, Charles O·2003·Cell Calcium

Abstract

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) possesses the structural and functional features expected of an organelle that supports the integration and coordination of major cellular processes. Ca(2+) sequestered within the ER sustains lumenal protein processing while providing a reservoir of the cation to support stimulus-response coupling in the cytosol. Release of ER Ca(2+) sufficient to impair protein processing promotes ER stress and signals the "unfolded protein response" (UPR). The association of the UPR with an acute suppression of mRNA translational initiation and a longer term up-regulation of ER chaperones and partial translational recovery is discussed. Regulatory sites in mRNA translation and the mechanisms responsible for the early and later phases of the UPR are reviewed. The regulatory significance of GRP78/BiP, a multifunctional, broad-specificity ER chaperone, in the coordination of ER protein processing with mRNA translation during acute and chronic ER stress is addressed. The relationship of ER stress to protein misfolding in the cytoplasm is examined. Translational alterations in embryonic cardiomyocytes during treatments with various Ca(2+)-mobilizing, growth-promoting stimuli are described. The importance of ER Ca(2+) stores, ER chaperones, and cytosolic-free Ca(2+) in translational control and growth promotion by these stimuli is assessed. Some perspectives are provided regarding Ca(2+) as an integrating factor in the generation or diversion of metabolic energy. Circumstances impacting upon cellular adaptability during exposure to growth stimuli or during stressful conditions that require rapid adjustments in ATP for continued viability are considered.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • ER stress can be detrimental to fungal cells if ER function is not restored because the ER is key in protein processing and Ca2+ signaling.

    “ER stress can be detrimental to fungal cells if ER function is not restored because in addition to its crucial role in the posttranslational processing of proteins, the ER is also a key player in Ca 2ϩ signaling (32).”
  • In eukaryotes, the ER constitutes a finite reservoir of Ca2+ primarily mobilized for signaling that must be replenished to sustain signaling and restore Ca2+ homeostasis.

    “It is known that in eukaryotes the ER constitutes a finite reservoir of Ca 2ϩ primarily mobilized for signaling that must be replenished to sustain the duration of signaling and ultimately restore Ca 2ϩ homeostasis in the ER and the cytosol (1-3, 32).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
