C/EBP Homologous Protein (CHOP) Contributes to Suppression of Metabolic Genes during Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in the Liver
2 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
The unfolded protein response (UPR) senses stress in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and initiates signal transduction cascades that culminate in changes to gene regulation. Long recognized as a means for improving ER protein folding through up-regulation of ER chaperones, the UPR is increasingly recognized to play a role in the regulation of metabolic pathways. ER stress is clearly connected to altered metabolism...
