Proteotoxic stress in human genome stability

Incorporation of errors during protein synthesis is denominated mistranslation. This compromises the acquisition of a correct final three dimensional structure and consequently the accumulation in the cell of proteins with abnormal conformations. Cells have protein quality control (PQC) mechanisms t...
