Roles of peptidyl-prolyl isomerase Pin1 in disease pathogenesis

Theranostics. 2021 Jan 19;11(7):3348-3358. doi: 10.7150/thno.45889. eCollection 2021.

Abstract

Pin1 belongs to the peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases (PPIases) superfamily and catalyzes the cis-trans conversion of proline in target substrates to modulate diverse cellular functions including cell cycle progression, cell motility, and apoptosis. Dysregulation of Pin1 has wide-ranging influences on the fate of cells; therefore, it is closely related to the occurrence and development of various diseases. This review summarizes the current knowledge of Pin1 in disease pathogenesis.

Keywords: Pin1; neurodegenerative diseases; pathogenesis of diseases; peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases; viral infection.
