Heparan sulfate and clusterin: Cleaning squad for extracellular protein degradation
The mechanisms of quality control for extracellular proteins are still poorly understood. In this issue, Itakura et al. (2020. J. Cell. Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201911126) show that upon binding to misfolded proteins, the extracellular chaperone clusterin is internalized via the heparan sul...

Sumario: | The mechanisms of quality control for extracellular proteins are still poorly understood. In this issue, Itakura et al. (2020. J. Cell. Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201911126) show that upon binding to misfolded proteins, the extracellular chaperone clusterin is internalized via the heparan sulfate receptor to undergo lysosomal degradation. |
