The association of shiga-like toxin with detergent-resistant membranes is modulated by glucosylceramide and is an essential requirement in the endoplasmic reticulum for a cytotoxic effect [PDF]
Receptor-mediated internalization to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and subsequent retro-translocation to the cytosol are essential sequential processes required for the productive intoxication of susceptible mammalian cells by Shiga-like toxin-1 (SLTx).

The Endoplasmic Reticulum-Associated Degradation Pathways of Budding Yeast [PDF]
Protein misfolding is a common cellular event that can produce intrinsically harmful products. To reduce the risk, quality control mechanisms are deployed to detect and eliminate misfolded, aggregated, and unassembled proteins. In the secretory pathway, it is mainly the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) pathways that perform this role.

Transcriptional analysis implicates endoplasmic reticulum stress in bovine spongiform encephalopathy. [PDF]
Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a fatal, transmissible, neurodegenerative disease of cattle. To date, the disease process is still poorly understood.

One step at a time: endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation [PDF]
Protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is monitored by ER quality control (ERQC) mechanisms. Proteins that pass ERQC criteria traffic to their final destinations through the secretory pathway, whereas non-native and unassembled subunits of multimeric proteins are degraded by the ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway.

Eeyarestatin 1 interferes with both retrograde and anterograde intracellular trafficking pathways [PDF]
Background: The small molecule Eeyarestatin I (ESI) inhibits the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-cytosol dislocation and subsequent degradation of ERAD (ER associated protein degradation) substrates.

Endoplasmic Reticulum Quality Control in Immune Cells
The endoplasmic reticulum quality control (ERQC) system, including endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD), the unfolded protein response (UPR), and autophagy, presides over cellular protein secretion and maintains proteostasis in mammalian ...

Sec61p is part of the endoplasmic reticulum‐associated degradation machinery [PDF]
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is a cellular pathway for the disposal of misfolded secretory proteins. This process comprises recognition of the misfolded proteins followed by their retro-translocation across the ER membrane into the cytosol in which polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation occur. A variety of data imply that

The isolation and characterisation of temperature-dependent Ricin A chain molecules in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
Ricin is a heterodimeric plant protein that is potently toxic to mammalian cells. Toxicity results from the catalytic depurination of eukaryotic ribosomes by ricin A chain (RTA) that follows toxin endocytosis to, and translocation across, the ...

The Sar1 GTPase coordinates biosynthetic cargo selection with endoplasmic reticulum export site assembly. [PDF]
Cargo selection and export from the endoplasmic reticulum is mediated by the COPII coat machinery that includes the small GTPase Sar1 and the Sec23/24 and Sec13/31 complexes.
