Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR), the dysfunctional Cl(-) channel in Cystic Fibrosis, undergoes complex biosynthesis at the endoplasmic reticulum involving several molecular chaperones including Hsp70 and many co-chaperones. Bcl-2- associated athanogenes (BAGs) constitute a protein family sharing an Hsc70-binding domain. BAG-1 possesses an ubiquitin-like domain (Ub-LD)...
