Published in 2019 at "Biochemical and biophysical research communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2019.10.065

Abstract: Membrane proteins are targeted to the surface transmembrane after folding and assembling in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Misfolded- and unassembled-proteins are degraded by proteasomes following ubiquitination, termed ER-associated degradation (ERAD). Transient receptor potential melastatin 2… read more here.
