Term Name:	protein insertion into ER membrane
Synonyms:	integral ER membrane protein localization, integral ER membrane protein positioning, localization of protein in ER membrane, positioning of protein in ER membrane, protein insertion into endoplasmic reticulum membrane, protein-endoplasmic reticulum insertion, protein-ER insertion
Definition:	The process that results in incorporation of a protein into an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. It depends on specific topogenic sequences of amino acids that ensure that a protein acquires the proper orientation during its insertion into the ER membrane.
