Abstract excerpt
When unfolded proteins accumulate in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the unfolded protein response is activated. This ER stress response restores ER homeostasis by coordinating processes that decrease translation, degrade misfolded proteins, and increase the levels of ER-resident chaperones. Ribonuclease inositol-requiring protein-1 (IRE-1), an endoribonuclease that mediates unconventional splicing, and its...
