"Protein Isoforms"

Effects of the isoform-specific characteristics of ATF6 alpha and ATF6 beta on endoplasmic reticulum stress response gene expression and cell viability.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-transmembrane proteins, ATF6 alpha and ATF6 beta, are cleaved during the ER stress response (ERSR). The resulting N-terminal fragments (N-ATF6 alpha and N-ATF6 beta) have conserved DNA-binding domains and divergent …

Opposing roles for ATF6alpha and ATF6beta in endoplasmic reticulum stress response gene induction.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transmembrane proteins, ATF6alpha and ATF6beta, are cleaved in response to ER stress, which can be induced by tunicamycin. The resulting N-terminal fragments of both ATF6 isoforms, which have conserved basic …
