maintaining &nbsp;homeostasis/ balance... and at level of single cell.</p>

<p>

QC for proteins... &nbsp;healthy balance of proteins.</p>

UPS = Ub Proteasome System.</p>

<p>

seek out and destroy &nbsp;bad proteins.</p>

<p>

harmful proteins may build up...</p>

<p>

Alz; &nbsp;viral, bacter, inflam diseases...</p>

<p>

targeted for destruction... &nbsp;tagged with Ub. &nbsp;= ubiquitin.</p>

<p>

must be primed by E1 &nbsp;activ &nbsp;enzyme.</p>

<p>

then xfer to E2 conjug enz.</p>

<p>

then to E3 &nbsp;ligase.</p>

<p>

process is repeated to create polyub &nbsp;chain... clear signal to waste disposal to proteasome

to remove chain and chop up the the polypeptide.</p>
