Abstract excerpt
It has been proposed (Randall, L. L., and Hardy, S. J. S. (1986) Cell 46, 921-928) that export of protein involves a kinetic partitioning between the pathway that leads to productive export and the pathway that leads to the folding of polypeptides into a stable conformation that is incompatible with export. As predicted from this model, a decrease in the rate of export of maltose-binding protein to the...
