The heterotrimeric BAG6 complex coordinates the direct handover of newly synthesised tail-anchored (TA) membrane proteins from an SGTA-bound preloading complex to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) delivery component TRC40. In contrast, defective precursors, including aberrant TA proteins, form a stable complex with this cytosolic protein quality control factor, enabling such clients to be either productively re-routed or selectively degraded. We identify the mitochondrial antiviral-signalling protein (MAVS) as an endogenous TA client of both SGTA and the BAG6 complex. Our data suggest that the BAG6 complex binds to a cytosolic pool of MAVS before its misinsertion into the ER membrane, from where it can subsequently be removed via ATP13A1-mediated dislocation. This BAG6-associated fraction of MAVS is dynamic and responds to the activation of an innate immune response, suggesting that BAG6 may modulate the pool of MAVS that is available for coordinating the cellular response to viral infection.

Identifying the set of genes collectively responsible for causing a disease from differential gene expression data is called gene selection problem. Though many complex methodologies have been applied to solve gene selection, formulated as an optimization problem, this study introduces a new simple, efficient, and biologically plausible solution procedure where the collective power of the targeted gene set to discriminate between diseased and normal gene expression profiles was focused. It uses Simulated Annealing to solve the underlying optimization problem and termed here as Differential Gene Expression Based Simulated Annealing (DGESA).

Turnover of EDEM1, an ERAD-enhancing factor, is mediated by multiple degradation routes.

Quality-based protein production and degradation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are essential for eukaryotic cell survival. During protein maturation in the ER, misfolded or unassembled proteins are destined for disposal through a process known as ER-associated degradation (ERAD). EDEM1 is an ERAD-accelerating factor whose gene expression is upregulated by the accumulation of aberrant proteins in the ER, known as ER stress.

The interaction between influenza A virus (IAV) and host proteins is an important process that greatly influences viral replication and pathogenicity. PB2 protein is a subunit of viral ribonucleoprotein (vRNP) complex playing distinct roles in viral transcription and replication. BAG6 (BCL2-associated athanogene 6) as a multifunctional host protein participates in physiological and pathological processes.

Serum biomarkers were explored based on the peripheral blood gene expression profiles of premature coronary artery disease (PCAD). RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) was used to detect PCAD-specific differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to validate the most significant DEGs, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was utilized to quantify the effect on corresponding serum proteins.

Inclusion body formation is associated with cytotoxicity in a number of neurodegenerative diseases. However, the molecular basis of the toxicity caused by the accumulation of aggregation-prone proteins remains controversial. In this study, we found that disease-associated inclusions induced by elongated polyglutamine chains disrupt the complex formation of BAG6 with UBL4A, a mammalian homologue of yeast Get5.
