Abstract excerpt
Impairment of the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) results in the failure to remove and degrade misfolded proteins and consequently causes the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the cell. The aberrant interactions between misfolded proteins and normal intracellular proteins are thought to underlie the pathogenesis in many neurodegenerative diseases. Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) is an important...
