lüll A cellular perspective on conformational disease: the role of genetic background and proteostasis networks Gidalevitz T; Kikis EA; Morimoto RICurr Opin Struct Biol 2010[Feb]; 20 (1): 23-32The inherently error-prone nature of protein biosynthesis and turnover leads to a constant flux of destabilized proteins. Genetic mutations in conformational disease-associated proteins, as well as exposure to acute and chronic proteotoxic stresses, further increase the load of misfolded protein on the proteostasis network. During aging, this leads to enhanced instability of the proteome, failure to buffer destabilizing genetic mutations or polymorphisms, and cellular decline. The combination of cell-type-specific differences in the buffering capacity of the proteostasis network and destabilizing polymorphisms in the genetic background may account for some of the cell-type specificity observed in disease, even when the predominant disease-associated protein is widely expressed.|*Homeostasis[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Cells/*metabolism/pathology[MESH]|Disease/*genetics[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Molecular Chaperones/metabolism[MESH]|Protein Conformation[MESH]|Proteins/chemistry/*genetics/*metabolism[MESH] |
