Introduction
Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF), protein family, discovery as a protein, biological function (toxin studies, stroke, etc. - Mikko, ER-stress - Apostolou, Glembotski, etc). Receptor unknown despite broad array of function. Knock-out has been recently published, giving more broader insight into the structure-function relationship of the protein.
The structure of MANF
MANF has 2 distinc and also functionally different domains, C-terminal and N-terminal, connected by a loop. SS-bridges?
N-terminal domain
Green link, removes C-terminal domain. Roles (Parkash, Hellman).
C-terminal domain
Green link, removes N-terminal domain. Roles (Parkash, Hellman).
