Abstract excerpt
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control pathway destroys misfolded and unassembled proteins in the ER. Most substrates of this ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway are constitutively targeted for destruction through recognition of poorly understood structural hallmarks of misfolding. However, the normal yeast ER membrane protein 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (Hmg2p) undergoes ERAD that is...
