U-turn in the ER – What happens to
unwanted or damaged proteins?
• Klausner et al: T-cell receptor complex
– non-stoichiometric synthesis of components
– forward trafficking of assembled receptors only
– Isolated α and μ subunits degraded in non-lysosomal compartments
ER protease
Retrotranslocation
•A yeast vacuolar protease
carboxypeptidase Y (Cpy*)
•Sommer & Jentsch: Sec61
mutation – ubiquitination
•A mammalian ER resident
protease (ER60)
was isolated and proposed to
be the quality-control protease
•Disruption of UBC6 (yeast) –
no degradation
•CFTR degradation by the
proteasome

N-linked glycosylation and the degradation of
glycosylated proteins
Hydrophobic patches: is being 'oily' sufficient
for ERAD?
What happens to to proteins with large cytosolic domains?
Damaged proteins are tagged
The ubiquitylation process
What happens when the function of the ER
is disturbed?
“perturbation of ER function”

The adaptive and apoptotic
pathways of the UPR
Micro-RNAs????
Adaptation to stress – chronic
stress
• Genetic
– Insulin secreting β-cells are very sensitive to genetic
defects in PERK, ATF6, Wolframin (Wolfram Syndrome)
– Akita mouse – Insulin2 gene mutation prevents oxidative
insulin folding – UPR - diabetes
• Environmental
– High cholesterol, alcohol, cigarette smoke…
• Pathogenic
– Hepatitis C virus – latent infection and carcinogenesis
• Developmental
– B cell development – antibody secretion by plasma cells
Diseases associated with ER stress

•
Obesity (leptin signaling)
Type I diabetes (insulin production)
Type II diabetes (insulin receptor signaling)
Necrotizing enterocolitis (?)
Neurological diseases (Alzheimer, Parkinson’s)
Psychiatric disorders (?)
Airway diseases (COPD, asthma, chronic
bronchitis..)
The pathomechanism of these diseases
varies
Can we modulate the UPR?

•Help to reduce aggregation
•Improve trafficking
•Reduce toxicity
Reduce toxicity – toxic aggregates
Take home message
You can run from the UPR – ERAD, autophagy
You can hide from ERAD – modulate the UPR
and enhance protein folding and rescue
proteins from ERAD
At the end they are still going to get you!
Connection of the UPR to
other cellular pathways
Proposed models for UPR-mediated JNK
and NFκ-B activation

Questions
• A disease is caused by the misfolding and
very efficient ERAD of a membrane protein.
– How would you modulate ERAD?
• A disease is caused by the formation of toxic
protein aggregates that activate the UPR and
apoptosis
– How would you modulate the UPR and ERAD?
