Newly synthesized tail-anchored membrane proteins (TAs) are relayed in a chaperone triad, Hsp70, Sgt2, and Get3, for delivery to the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, the authors show how the conformational dynamics of the cochaperone Sgt2 generates a decision point to enable efficient and selective TA targeting.
