Termin vormerken Lisa Theisl (Graz): The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the entry gate for membrane and secretory proteins and serves as fold-ing compartment. The native conformation of a protein is essential for its proper function, thereby protein folding is a crucial step in the maturation process of a protein. However, the folding process is error-prone. The ER is equipped with a highly-conserved quality control (QC) system to assist proteins to attain their na-tive conformations.
