Protein quality control (QC) within the endoplasmic reticulum and the related unfolded protein response (UPR) pathway of signal transduction are major regulators of the secretory pathway, which is involved in virtually any aspect of development and reproduction. The study of plant-specific processes such as pathogen response, seed development, the synthesis of seed storage proteins and of particular toxins, is providing novel insights, with potential implications for the general recognition events and mechanisms of action of QC and UPR.

Abstract
Protein quality control (QC) within the endoplasmic reticulum and the related unfolded protein response (UPR) pathway of signal transduction are major regulators of the secretory pathway, which is involved in virtually any aspect of development and reproduction. The study of plant-specific processes such as pathogen response, seed development, the synthesis of seed storage proteins and of particular toxins, is providing novel insights, with potential implications for the general recognition events and mechanisms of action of QC and UPR.File in questo prodotto:
