Abstract excerpt
The cotranslational misfolding of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator chloride channel (CFTR) plays a central role in the molecular basis of CF. The misfolding of the most common CF variant (ΔF508) remodels both the translational regulation and quality control of CFTR. Nevertheless, it is unclear how the misassembly of the nascent polypeptide may directly influence the activity of the...
