The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is central to protein synthesis, folding and modification, ensuring that the proteome of a cell remains functional and balanced. When the ER is overwhelmed by an ...
How does the ER prevent misfolded proteins? Researchers identify the SLC33A1 transporter as a critical glutathione regulator for protein quality control.
The cell's endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a central role in protein synthesis, folding, and calcium (Ca²⁺) storage. When ...
What is the Cnpy1 protein? New research reveals how the Canopy1 protein allows vomeronasal neurons to survive high ER-stress.
Researchers at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Hyderabad have identified a mammalian protein, Cnpy1 (Canopy1), that is essential for the survival and function of vomeronasal sensory ...
