gene regulation lecture no 5: protein folding and ubiquitination
DESCRIPTION
Protein folding Correct protein folding is essential to proper protein function. Protein folding occurs mainly in the ER. The status of protein folding act as a feedback to the protein translation. Signaling pathways emanate from the ER to regulate mRNA translation. These pathways prevent the accumulation of unfolded protein in the ER by decreasing the load, increasing the ER folding capacity, and increasing the degradation of misfolded proteins.TRANSCRIPT

Protein foldingCorrect protein folding is essential to proper protein function.
Protein folding occurs mainly in the ER.
The status of protein folding act as a feedback to the protein translation.
Signaling pathways emanate from the ER to regulate mRNA translation .
These pathways prevent the accumulation of unfolded protein in the ER by decreasing the load, increasing the ER folding capacity, and increasing the degradation of misfolded proteins .

*High proportion of proteins are translocated into the ER .
*Proteins are translocated into the ER lumen in an unfolded state.
*Inhibition of translation initiation serves as an effective means to limit the flow of proteins into the
ER.

*Translocation of nearly all proteins across the ER membrane occurs co-translationally and is usually directed by an N-terminal signal peptide.
*When the signal peptide is formed the signal
recognition particle (SRP) binds and stops translational elongation until the ribosome docks
at the ER membrane .
Protein folding
![Page 5: Gene regulation Lecture No 5: Protein folding and Ubiquitination](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5a4d1af27f8b9ab05997f1d1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Upon docking to the ER membrane, the polypeptide is simultaneously synthesized and translocated across the lipid bilayer. This mechanism prevents the polypeptide from improper localization in the cytosol.
ER translocon: An aqueous pore formed by the Sec61 complex and the BiP/GRP78 (immunoglobulin-binding
protein/glucose-regulated protein) .
Protein folding
![Page 6: Gene regulation Lecture No 5: Protein folding and Ubiquitination](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5a4d1af27f8b9ab05997f1d1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Functions of BiP:
1 -It has a peptide-dependent ATPase activity that is used to seal the lumenal side of the aqueous pore to maintain the permeability barrier between the ER and the cytosol when the ribosome is not tightly attached .
2 -BiP functions in post-translational translocation to ensure unidirectional translocation of the elongating polypeptide across the ER membrane.

ER Capacity: The protein concentration in the ER lumen is 100 mg/ml, it is essential that protein chaperones facilitate protein folding by preventing aggregation of protein folding intermediates and by correcting misfolded proteins. BiP/GRP78 – uses the energy from ATP hydrolysis to facilitate folding by preventing aggregation of proteins within the ER.
Quality control: Only those polypeptides that are properly folded and assembled in the ER can transit to the Golgi compartment. Proteins
that are misfolded in the ER are retained and eventually translocated back through the ER translocon into the cytosol for degradation by
the 26S proteasome.

UPR is orchestrated by a general attenuation of translation initiation, a selective translation of a small subset of mRNAs encoding adaptive functions, and transcriptional activation of a
large set of genes .

Protein Folding and disease
Misfolded proteins accumulat in the cell
Accumulation of specific proteins cause different diseases.
Example: Accumulation of αsynuclein increases lewy bodies in the neurons and causes
Parkinson Disease.

Science NewsPathway Identified in Human Lymphoma Points Way to New Blood Cancer TreatmentsScienceDaily (Nov. 21, 2012) — A pathway called the "Unfolded Protein Response," or UPR, a cell's way of responding to unfolded and misfolded proteins, helps tumor cells escape programmed cell death during the development of lymphoma.

Protein foldingProtein folding is a spontinous process.
Chaperons: Are a group of proteins playing important role in protein folding.
Chaperons safeguard the folding of nascent chains.
Most proteins bind chaperons, however it is essential for the correct folding of a limited
number of proteins .

*Heat shock proteins (Hsp): They are chaperons.
*Hsps stabelize the newly formed chains and protect them from their hydrophobic characters.
• *Hsp70-bound substrate must be transferred to a chaperonin complex for productive folding.
