Abstract excerpt
The selective breakdown of newly synthesized proteins retained within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is probably mediated by the specific recognition of structural features of protein substrates by components of a degradative system. Within the alpha chain of the multisubunit T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) complex, a transmembrane sequence containing two basic amino acid residues has been shown to act as a...
