Abstract excerpt
Accumulation of unfolded proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum activates a signal transduction cascade that culminates in the transcriptional induction of genes encoding adaptive functions. One proximal sensor for this unfolded protein response is the protein kinase/endoribonuclease IRE1alpha. IRE1alpha is a type-I transmembrane glycoprotein for which the N-terminal luminal domain (NLD) senses the...
