Major aspects of the mammalian UPR
• Up-regulation of ER chaperones (i.e., BiP, GRP94, GRP170).- prevents protein aggregation and contributes to
maintaining ER function during stress conditions- promotes refolding when stress subsides
• Transient inhibition of protein translation.- limits the accumulation of unfolded proteins- not restricted to secretory pathway proteins
• Increased degradative capacity of the cell.- reduces load of unfolded proteins
• Arrest of cells in the G1 phase of cell cycle.- ensures cells experiencing stress are not replicated
• Activation of apoptotic pathways if stress persists.- protects organism at the expense of the cell
The Cellular Response to ER Stress or the Unfolded Protein Response
1. The signal – how damage is assessed
2. The transducers – how the signal is relayed
3. The response – characterized by damage control
4. Defeat – protecting the organism

The Signal
1. The signal is the accumulation of unfolded
proteins; specifically those that bind to BiP
(the Hsp70 chaperone of the ER)
2. Levels of BiP and not other chaperones are

XBP-1 is highly expressed in the placenta
And Ire1 KO mice have decreased expression of VEGF in placenta
Targeted disruption of Ire1 everywhere but in trophoblastsrescued embryonic lethality, so Ire1 expression in trophoblasts
is critical for angiogenesis in mouse placenta!

Summary
1. Disruption of ER homeostasis adversely affects normal protein folding and results in the activation of a cytoprotective signal transduction response known as the unfolded protein response.
2. This response is characterized by increased expression of molecular chaperones, transient inhibition of protein synthesis, up-regulation of ERAD components, and exit from cell cycle. However prolonged UPR activation can result in induction of apoptotic programs.
3. Three ER localized proteins (Ire1, PERK, and ATF6) signal the response and are coordinately activated by the accumulation of unfolded proteins and decreases in levels of free BiP.
4. A number of normal development and differentiation programs are dependent on UPR activation.
5. A growing list of disease states are associated with UPR activation. In some instances, the prosurvival aspects of the UPR lead to disease (i.e., cancer and some viruses), whereas in other cases the proapoptotic elements of the response are responsible for the disease pathology (i.e., neurodegenerative diseases).
