Quality Control and Protein Folding in the Secretory Pathway

Trombetta, E. Sergio, Parodi, Armando J.·2003·Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology

Abstract

▪ Abstract The biosynthesis of secretory and membrane proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) yields mostly properly folded and assembled structures with full biological activity. Such fidelity is maintained by quality control (QC) mechanisms that avoid the production of nonnative structures. QC relies on chaperone systems in the ER that monitor and assist in the folding process. When folding promotion is not sufficient, proteins are retained in the ER and eventually retranslocated to the cytosol for degradation by the ubiquitin proteasome pathway. Retention of proteins that fail QC can sometimes occur beyond the ER, and degradation can take place in lysosomes. Several diseases are associated with proteins that do not pass QC, fail to be degraded efficiently, and accumulate as aggregates. In other cases, pathology arises from the downregulation of mutated but potentially functional proteins that are retained and degraded by the QC system.

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.
