Abstract excerpt
We have identified a particularly clear case of compensatory transcriptional regulation among ER chaperones in Caenorhabditis elegans using a GFP reporter transgene that is under the control of the promoter of hsp-4, a C. elegans homolog of GRP-78/BiP. Knockdown by RNA interference of 9 known or predicted ER chaperones induced hsp-4 upregulation via the ire-1/xbp-1 signaling cascade employed in the unfolded...
