| Function |
Recognizes glycoproteins with minor folding defects. Reglucosylates single N-glycans near the misfolded part of the protein, thus providing quality control for protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum. Reglucosylated proteins are recognized by calreticulin for recycling to the endoplasmic reticulum and refolding or degradation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10694380}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum lumen {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU10138, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10694380}. Endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU10138, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10694380}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Higher levels in pancreas, skeletal muscle, kidney, and brain. Low levels in lung and heart. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10694380}.
