    Abstract

    Ribosomes translating secretory and membrane proteins are targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and attach to the protein-conducting channel and ribosome-associated membrane proteins (RAMPs). Recently, a new RAMP, ERj1p, has been identified that recruits BiP to ribosomes and regulates translational activity. Here we present the cryo-EM structure of a ribosome-ERj1p complex, revealing how ERj1p coordinates the ribosome at the membrane and how allosteric effects may mediate ERj1p's regulatory activity.
