Project description:Endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase 1 alpha (ERO1α) is an endoplasmic reticulum stress–related gene, which improves cell perseverance against challenges of high levels of protein misfolding during endoplasmic reticulum stress by retaining good activity of oxidative protein folding. Numerous studies have shown abnormal expression of ERo1α in various diseases, but its downstream target are not fully understood. Our work will help in the elucidation of the downstream molecular mechanism of ERO1α.
