Abstract: | The accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) triggers the increased production of several ER-resident proteins. This signalling pathway exists in organisms as divergent as mammals and yeast, and is the only known example of an intracellular signalling system that links the ER and the nucleus. Recently, a transmembrane kinase similar in structure to growth-factor receptor kinases has been identified as a key component of the unfolded-protein-response pathway in yeast. |
