Abstract excerpt
Like for most transmembrane proteins, translation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mRNA takes place at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) where they are synthesized, folded and assembled. The molecular mechanisms involved in the transport process of GPCRs from ER to the plasma membrane are poorly investigated. Here we studied the mechanisms involved in glycosylation-dependent cell surface expression and quality...
