The invention provides methods and compositions for modulating the expression, processing, post-translational modification, and/or activity of XBP-1 protein, or a protein in a signal transduction pathway involving XBP-1. Exemplary XBP-1 activities that can be modulated using the methods and compositions of the invention include: the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR), plasma cell differentiation, immunoglobulin production, apoptosis and the production of IL- 6. The present invention also pertains to methods for identifying compounds that modulate the expression, processing, post-translational modification, and/or activity of XBP-1 protein or a molecule in a signal transduction pathway involving XBP-1.

L'invention concerne des procédés et des compositions permettant la modulation de l'expression, du traitement, de la modification post-translationnelle, et/ou de l'activité de la protéine XBP-1, ou d'une protéine dans un parcours de transduction de signal impliquant XBP-1. A titre d'exemple, on mentionne, comme activités XBP-1 pouvant être modulées au moyen des procédés et des compositions de l'invention : la réponse de la protéine dépliée (UPR), la différentiation cellule-plasma, la production d'immunoglobuline, l'apoptose et la production de IL-6. L'invention concerne également des procédés d'identification de composés modulant l'expression, le traitement, la modification post-translationnelle, et/ou l'activité de la protéine XBP-1 ou d'une molécule dans un parcours de transduction de signal impliquant XBP-1.
