abstract：:Proteins are degraded from the ER by endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD). In a recent issue of Molecular Cell, Fleig et al. (2012) describe a role for a ubiquitin-binding rhomboid protease, RHBDL4, in degradation of select ERAD substrates. These findings and the significance of rhomboids and other intr...

abstract：:Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) critically modulate adhesion-, growth-, and migration-related processes. Here, we show that the transmembrane protein, Nogo-A, inhibits neurite outgrowth and cell spreading in neurons and Nogo-A-responsive cell lines via HSPGs.
