Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Misfolded proteins are degraded by proteasome in ER-associated degradation (ERAD). However, our previous study suggested that unidentified protease cleaves CPY* (carboxypeptidase Y mutant), which is a major ERAD model substrate, in budding yeast. To clarify the mechanism of the cleavage, we analyzed CPY* intermediates. Our study demonstrated that 50k and 30k intermediates were generated and cleavage site for 50k intermediate is located in 400-404 amino acid residues.
