Abstract

Calnexin is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lectin that mediates protein folding on the rough ER. Calnexin also interacts with ER calcium pumps that localize to the mitochondria-associated membrane (MAM). Depending on ER homeostasis, varying amounts of calnexin target to the plasma membrane. However, no regulated sorting mechanism is so far known for calnexin. Our results now describe how the interaction of calnexin with the cytosolic sorting protein PACS-2 distributes calnexin between the rough ER, the MAM, and the plasma membrane. Under control conditions, more than 80% of calnexin localizes to the ER, with the majority on the MAM. PACS-2 knockdown disrupts the calnexin distribution within the ER and increases its levels on the cell surface. Phosphorylation by protein kinase CK2 of two calnexin cytosolic serines (Ser554/564) reduces calnexin binding to PACS-2. Consistent with this, a Ser554/564 Asp phosphomimic mutation partially reproduces PACS-2 knockdown by increasing the calnexin signal on the cell surface and reducing it on the MAM. PACS-2 knockdown does not reduce retention of other ER markers. Therefore, our results suggest that the phosphorylation state of the calnexin cytosolic domain and its interaction with PACS-2 so...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.
