Hi Everybody, BCBP 2020 Clean up Clean out Day!  We will have faculty and student recruits visiting soon and we want to make a good impression! If you need a large trash can, please let me know. If you have items in your lab that you no longer use or broken items, now is the … Read more

Seminar: Prasanna Satpute-Krishan (Uniformed Services Univ.)

1131 Bioinformatics 130 Mason Farm Road, Chapel Hill, NC, United States

“Selective ER-Export of Misfolded Secretory Pathway Proteins for Lysosomal Degradation” Host: Sasky Neher ABSTRACT We discovered that a subset of misfolded secretory pathway proteins, including variants of prion protein and amyloid precursor protein, are selectively exported out of the ER by a constitutive and stress-enhanced pathway named RESET. After RESET, these misfolded proteins are subsequently … Read more
