But the most striking clue comes from evolutionary analysis: the putative promoter region of STRc246 contains binding motifs for and HSFâ1 âmaster regulators of lowâoxygen and heatâshock responses. This places STRc246 at a potential convergence point of multiple stress signaling pathways. A controversial mechanism The locus is predicted to encode a 56âaminoâacid microprotein, dubbed STRCPâ246. Preliminary mass spectrometry has detected a peptide matching its sequence in mitochondrial fractions of stressed human fibroblasts. If verified, STRCPâ246 might stabilize electron transport chain complex I during oxidative burstsâa mechanism previously unknown in neuroprotection. strc246
