Abstract excerpt
BiP co-chaperones ERdj4, ERdj5, and GRP170 associate in cells with peptides predicted to be aggregation prone. Here, extending these findings to a full-length protein, we examine two Interstitial Lung Disease-associated mutants (ILD) of surfactant protein C (SP-C). The TANGO algorithm, which identifies sequences prone to formation of β strand aggregates, found three such regions in SP-C: the N-terminal...
