Function | Probably plays a role in facilitating the assembly of multimeric protein complexes inside the endoplasmic reticulum. Involved in the correct folding of proteins and degradation of misfolded proteins via its interaction with DNAJC10, probably to facilitate the release of DNAJC10 from its substrate (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
Subcellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Melanosome {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. |
Top Pathways | Protein export, Prion diseases, Protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum, Thyroid hormone synthesis, Antigen processing and presentation |
