Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial genetic and metabolic stress causes activation of calcineurin (Cn), NFAT, ATF2, and NFkappaB/Rel factors, which collectively alter the expression of an array of nuclear genes. We demonstrate here that mitochondrial stress-induced activation of NFkappaB/Rel factors involves inactivation of IkappaBbeta through Cn-mediated dephosphorylation. Phosphorylated IkappaBbeta is a substrate for Cn phosphatase,...
