Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Formation of disulfide bonds is a crucial step in the folding of a number of proteins that go through the secretory pathway. They include proteins with industrial importance such as insulin. The ER of mammalian cells harbors twenty enzymes that belong to thioredoxin-superfamily members (they are also called thioredoxin-like proteins). These enzymes are implicated in the formation of protein disulfide bonds. However, the physiological function of each enzyme is unclear, due to the lack of information on its substrates. To gain insights into the role of JPDI, one of the enzymes, we successfully identified the potential substrates of this enzyme from a mouse tissue. Furthermore, we were able to identify four of thioredoxin-superfamily members that interacted with proinsulin (a precursor of insulin) via formation of an intermolecular disulfide bond. These findings provide insights into the mechanisms of folding of secretory proteins in mammalian cells.
