Function |
May serve as a molecular chaperone assisting in the proper folding of secreted and/or membrane proteins. Plays a role in non-neural cells nuclear envelope and endoplasmic reticulum integrity. May have a redundant function with TOR1A in non-neural tissues. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23569223, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24275647}.
