  1. 21. Proteostasis beyond chaperones - Auxiliary systems in the management of damaged proteins

    Författare :Rebecca Josefson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aging; proteostasis; protein quality control; asymmetric inheritance; vesicle trafficking;

    Sammanfattning : Aging entails loss of functionality and increased risk of death, even for unicellular organisms, such as the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. On a cellular level, aging is accompanied by an accumulation of harmful aging factors, e.g. damaged and aggregated proteins. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Systemic RNAi Relies on the Endomembrane System in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Författare :Yani Zhao; Andrea Hinas; Staffan Svärd; Simon Tuck; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systemic RNAi; RNAi inheritance; late endosomes MVBs; SID-5; SEC-22; SYX-6; C12D8.1; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The membrane system of a eukaryotic cell is a large and complex system handling the transport, exchange and degradation of many kinds of material. Recent research shows that double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) mediated gene silencing (RNA interference) is a membrane related process. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Stress response regulation and protein aggregate inheritance in Caulobacter crescentus

    Författare :Frederic Dominique Schramm; Kristina Jonas; Franz Narberhaus; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stress; protein aggregation; cellular aging; molecular chaperones; heat shock response; DnaK; sigma factor; suppressor genes; DNA replication; starvation; Caulobacter crescentus; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : Many stress conditions a cell encounters threaten the continuation of basic biological processes ultimately endangering its survival. Heat shock and antibiotic exposure can lead to a sudden surge of protein un- and misfolding, while nutrient starvation directly causes a lack of energy and molecular building blocks. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Connecting Systemic RNAi to the Endomembrane System in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Författare :Benjamin T. Holmgren; Andrea Hinas; Gerhart Wagner; Peter Brodersen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systemic RNAi; RNAi inheritance; Endomembrane system; Late endosome; SID-5; SEC-22; SYX-6; C12D8.1; RNA; Biology with specialization in Molecular Cell Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : RNA interference (RNAi) is a gene regulation mechanism conserved among eukaryotes. To silence gene expression, RNAi relies on a short single-stranded guide RNA to steer the RNA-induced Silencing Complex (RISC) to mRNAs with guide strand-complementary sequences. RNAi is a highly membrane-associated process. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Links between Aging and Proteostasis Decline in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Författare :Veronica Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aging; aggregates; proteostasis; proteasome; disaggregation; peroxiredoxins; asymmetric inheritance; S. cerevisiae;

    Sammanfattning : Proteins are continuously synthesized and degraded to meet the demands of the cell. Hence, a proper balance between synthesis, folding, disaggregation and degradation is of essence to ensure cell survival. Disruption of any part of this proteostasis network may have severe consequences for cellular fitness and longevity. LÄS MER
