The Anaphase Promoting Complex targets the toxic protein Progerin for ubiquitin-dependent degradation via autophagy
2026-07-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The premature aging disease Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) results from the accumulation of progerin, a cytotoxic protein generated from a point mutation in the Lamin A/C gene, in the nuclear lamina. Upon the proper stimulation, cells degrade progerin, reversing cellular HGPS phenotypes; however, there is still a gap in our knowledge concerning which pathways are mediating progerin...
