UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q5R440 (Q5R440)
Gene Name:
CANX
Organism: Pongo abelii (Sumatran orangutan)
Function: Calcium-binding protein that interacts with newly synthesized monoglucosylated glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. It may act in assisting protein assembly and/or in the retention within the ER of unassembled protein subunits. It seems to play a major role in the quality control apparatus of the ER by the retention of incorrectly folded proteins. Associated with partial T-cell antigen receptor complexes that escape the ER of immature thymocytes, it may function as a signaling complex regulating thymocyte maturation. Additionally it may play a role in receptor-mediated endocytosis at the synapse (By similarity)

Protein Subcellular Localization: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Mitochondrion membrane. Melanosome membrane
