Abstract
In a recent paper by Dvela-Levitt etal., chemical screening using an immunofluorescent assay identified a compound that caused removal of a dominant-inherited misfolded secretory protein, mucin1-frameshifted, from an intracellular location in immortalized renal epithelial cells of a patient affected with progressive medullary cystic kidney disease. This illustrates the power of chemical screening at the cellular level to address specific proteinopathies and the utility of such compounds to illuminate novel cellular pathways that can clear toxic proteins.
