Abstract excerpt
Proteasome degradation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-misfolded proteins requires retrograde transport from ER to the cytosol. To date, it is not clear whether this event constitutes the exclusive ER degradation process for non-native membrane proteins. Here we describe the role of GTP in the degradation of DeltaF508-CFTR and the alpha subunit of the T-cell receptor (TCRalpha), representative misfolded ER membrane...
