“…Moreover, the ability of selected Hsp70s and JDPs to directly associate with lipids and membranes sheds light on their possible role in the PM as well ( Caplan et al, 1992 ; Kanazawa et al, 1997 ; Beilharz et al, 2003 ; Kalli et al, 2013 ; Radons, 2016 ; Sopha et al, 2017 ; Sjögren et al, 2018 ; Dobriyal et al, 2020 ; De Maio and Hightower, 2021 ; Zhang et al, 2021 ) ( Table 1 ). The importance of different chaperones and other PQC factors in diseases associated with PM proteins is discussed elsewhere ( Juarez-Navarro et al, 2020 ). In this review, we collate data available from multiple organisms, including yeast, plants, and mammalian models, and come up with a unifying model to show that, like cytosolic proteins, the versatile Hsp70:JDP systems are guardians of PM proteins as well, throughout their odyssey in the cell ( Table 2 ).…”
