Life of proteins: from nascent chain to degradation

Nature Structural & Molecular Biology volume 25, pages 996–999 (2018)Cite this article

Subjects

Cells rely on the synthesis, translocation, folding and turnover of proteins. Owing to complexity, spatiotemporal regulation and surveillance of these processes are vital. Advances in the field were discussed at the international symposium ‘Proteins: From the Cradle to the Grave’ that took place in the wonderful setting of a Buddhist temple located close to Kyoto, Japan. The emerging theme was the interdependence among cellular processes and organelle compartments.
