ATF6 Activated by Proteolysis Binds in the Presence of NF-Y (CBF) Directly to the<i>cis</i>-Acting Element Responsible for the Mammalian Unfolded Protein Response
1 Sept 2000
Abstract excerpt
Transcription of genes encoding molecular chaperones and folding enzymes in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is induced by accumulation of unfolded proteins in the ER. This intracellular signaling, known as the unfolded protein response (UPR), is mediated by the cis-acting ER stress response element (ERSE) in mammals. In addition to ER chaperones, the mammalian transcription factor CHOP (also called GADD153) is...
