Disease-Causing Intracellular Proteins

Molecular classification
Enzyme, Structural protein, Signaling protein, Transcription factor, Other
01

Overview

Disease-causing intracellular proteins are a diverse group of molecules that contribute to various diseases when mutated, misfolded, or dysregulated. These proteins perform essential cellular functions, and their dysfunction can disrupt normal cellular processes, leading to conditions such as neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, metabolic disorders, infectious diseases, and autoimmune conditions. Targeting these proteins therapeutically is challenging due to their intracellular location, but strategies include small molecule drugs, enzyme replacement therapy, and immunotherapies.
