Abstract
IRE1α is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) sensor that recognizes misfolded proteins to induce the unfolded protein response (UPR). We studied cholera toxin (CTx), which invades the ER and activates IRE1α in host cells, to understand how unfolded proteins are recognized. Proximity labeling colocalized the enzymatic and metastable A1 segment of
