Functional alterations of cardiac proteasomes under physiological and pathological conditions
14 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
The cardiac proteasome is a complex, heterogeneous, and dynamic organelle. Its function is regulated by its molecular organization, post-translational modifications, and associated partner proteins. Pressure overload, ischaemic heart disease, or genetic mutations in contractile proteins can cause heart failure, during which misfolded protein levels are elevated. At the same time, numerous interconnected signal...
