Protein is fundamental to life, as it generates protein variants. The maintenance of a dynamic equilibrium in these protein variants, known as protein homeostasis, is crucial for cellular function. Various factors, both endogenous and exogenous, can disrupt protein homeostasis during protein synthesis. These factors include translational error, and biological functions mediated by regulatory factors, and more. When cell accumulate proteins with folding errors, it impairs protein homeostasis, leading to the development of related diseases. In response to protein folding errors, multiple monitoring mechanisms are activated to mediate pathways that sustain the dynamic equilibrium. This review highlights the complex relationships within the proteostasis network, which are influenced by a variety of factors. These insights potentially provide new directions for studying diseases caused by protein synthesis errors.
