Abstract
Erbin belongs to the LAP protein family. Originally, Erbin was described as a Her2-interacting protein. Recent studies demonstrated that Erbin could inhibit the Ras-mediated activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling pathways. It suggests that Erbin may function as a signaling molecule. The functions of Erbin in determining cell polarity and cell adhesion have been well described. This review mainly focuses on the recent findings in regulation of signaling pathways by Erbin.

Nutrition and Metabolism in Musculoskeletal Diseases
The musculoskeletal system consists mainly of cartilage, bone, muscles, tendons, connective tissue and ligaments. Balanced metabolism is of vital importance for the homeostasis of the musculoskeletal system. A series of musculoskeletal diseases (for example, sarcopenia, osteoporosis) are resulted from the dysregulated metabolism of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, metabolic diseases (such ...read more
Protein Folding, Aggregation and Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation
Protein folding, misfolding and aggregation remain one of the main problems of interdisciplinary science not only because many questions are still open, but also because they are important from the point of view of practical application. Protein aggregation and formation of fibrillar structures, for example, is a hallmark of a ...read more
