Abstract excerpt
The unfolded protein response (UPR) is constitutively active in yeast thioredoxin reductase mutants, suggesting a link between cytoplasmic thiol redox control and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) oxidative protein folding. The unique oxidative environment of the ER lumen requires tight regulatory control, and we show that the active UPR depends on the presence of oxidized thioredoxins rather than arising because of a...
