A number of proteins have been identified as substrates for endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated protein degradation (ERAD) and we describe here a new model substrate with which to study this process. Two secretion-defective forms of yeast invertase that accumulated in the ER to greatly different levels were examined: Suc2-538p levels were low, while Suc2-533p was present in high amounts. Because Suc2-533p and Suc2-538p mRNA levels were comparable, we examined whether Suc2-538p was targeted for degradation. Both mutant polypeptide levels were unaffected in a yeast strain deficient in vacuolar protease activity and, additionally, we showed that Suc2-538p was stabilized in ERAD-deficient strains, demonstrating that Suc2-538p was a substrate for ERAD.
