Abstract: Monitoring Editor: Jeffrey Brodsky Capture of newly synthesized proteins into endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-derived COPII vesicles represents a critical juncture in the quality control of protein biogenesis within the secretory pathway. The yeast ABC transporter, Yor1p, is a pleiotropic drug pump that shows homology to the human cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Deletion of a phenylalanine residue in Yor1p, equivalent to the major disease-causing mutation in CFTR, causes ER retention and degradation via ER-associated degradation (ERAD). We have examined the relationship between protein folding, ERAD and forward transport during Yor1p biogenesis. Uptake of Yor1p into COPII vesicles is mediated by an N-terminal di-acidic signal that likely interacts with the "B-site" cargo-recognition domain on the COPII subunit, Sec24p. Yor1p-DeltaF is subjected to complex ER quality control involving multiple cytoplasmic chaperones and degradative pathways. Stabilization of Yor1p-DeltaF by inhibiting its degradation does not permit access of Yor1p-DeltaF to COPII vesicles. We propose that the ER quality control checkpoint engages misfolded Yor1p even after it has been stabilized by inhibition of the degradative pathway.
