Transcriptional and Translational Control in the Mammalian Unfolded Protein Response
7 Oct 2002
Abstract excerpt
Cells monitor the physiological load placed on their endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and respond to perturbations in ER function by a process known as the unfolded protein response (UPR). In metazoans the UPR has a transcriptional component that up-regulates expression of genes that enhance the capacity of the organelle to deal with the load of client proteins and a translational component that insures tight coupling...
