Published in 2024 at "Protein Science"

DOI: 10.1002/pro.4996

Abstract: The Sec61 translocon allows the translocation of secretory preproteins from the cytosol to the endoplasmic reticulum lumen during polypeptide biosynthesis. These proteins possess an N‐terminal signal peptide (SP) which docks at the translocon. SP mutations… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Molecular Biology of the Cell"

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e21-09-0451

Abstract: More than 30% of eukaryotic proteins contain domains that must translocate across or integrate into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. With few exceptions, protein translocation and transmembrane domain integration at the ER require the conserved… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Nature Chemical Biology"

DOI: 10.1101/2022.08.11.503542

Abstract: Itskanov and Wang et al. determined high-resolution structures of the human Sec61 channel inhibited by several structurally distinct small molecules and revealed the common inhibitor-binding site in Sec61 and molecular interactions in atomic detail. The… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in biology"

DOI: 10.1101/cshperspect.a041250

Abstract: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a major site for protein synthesis, folding, and maturation in eukaryotic cells, responsible for production of secretory proteins and most integral membrane proteins. The universally conserved protein-conducting channel Sec61 complex… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "mBio"

DOI: 10.1128/mbio.02585-24

Abstract: ABSTRACT The CNF1 toxin from extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) deamidates glutamine 61 of Rac1 small GTPase, as well as its equivalents in RhoA and Cdc42 into glutamic acid. This post-translational modification of Rho proteins… read more here.
