Journal ArticleDOI
ClpP mediates activation of a mitochondrial unfolded protein response in C. elegans.
TL;DR: A genome-wide RNAi-based screen for genes that signal the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPR) in C. elegans suggests that eukaryotes utilize component(s) from the protomitochondrial symbiont to signal the UPR(mt).
Journal ArticleDOI
The Matrix Peptide Exporter HAF-1 Signals a Mitochondrial UPR by Activating the Transcription Factor ZC376.7 in C. elegans
TL;DR: Hf-1, a gene encoding a mitochondria-localized ATP-binding cassette protein, is required for signaling within the UPR(mt) and for coping with misfolded protein stress, suggesting a simple model whereby perturbation of the protein-folding environment in the mitochondrial matrix promotes ClpP-mediated generation of peptides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ubiquitin-Like Protein 5 Positively Regulates Chaperone Gene Expression in the Mitochondrial Unfolded Protein Response
TL;DR: Mitochondrial morphology and assembly of multi-subunit mitochondrial complexes of biotinylated proteins are also perturbed in ubl-5(RNAi) worms, indicating that UBL-5 also counteracts physiological levels of mitochondrial stress and effects a nuclear step required for mounting a response to the threat of mitochondrial protein misfolding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative protein folding by an endoplasmic reticulum localized peroxiredoxin
Ester Zito,Eduardo P. Melo,Eduardo P. Melo,Yun Yang,Asa Wahlander,Thomas A. Neubert,David Ron +6 more
TL;DR: Observations implicate ER-localized PRDX4 in a previously unanticipated, parallel, ERO1-independent pathway that couples hydroperoxide production to oxidative protein folding in mammalian cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proteasomal adaptation to environmental stress links resistance to proteotoxicity with longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans.

TL;DR: Genetic rescue experiments suggest that features common to the constitutively expressed worm AIP-1 and mammalian AIRAPL (but missing in the smaller, arsenite-inducible AIRAP) are important to lifespan extension.
