Abstract excerpt
Immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (BiP) is present in the lumen of the mammalian endoplasmic reticulum, where it associates transiently with a variety of newly synthesized secretory and membrane proteins or permanently with mutant proteins that are incorrectly folded. We describe a unique member of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae 70-kDa heat shock protein gene family (HSP70) that encodes a protein...
