PDIA3 / HRP / Map.ERP57

Product Details

Description	Mouse monoclonal to Erp57 (HRP). ERp57, also known as Glucose Regulated Protein 58 (Grp58), Hormone-Induced Protein-70 (HIP-70) and microsomal Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase, is a member of the protein disulfide isomerase family, containing two canonical CXHC tetrapeptide active site motifs (1-5). It has quite a few diverse roles. It functions as an accessory oxidoreductase involved in disulfide bond formation. In the ER, ERp57 interacts with membrane bound calnexin and soluble calreticulin (lectin chaperones) via their praline rich P-domain arms. Lectin chaperones bind nascent non-native glycoproteins, and position ERp57 to act upon the immature or misfolded glycoproteins that possess mono-glycosylated side chains. ERp57 deletion impairs posttranslational phases of influenza hema-glutinin folding, and causes accelerated release of MHC-I molecules, resulting in the coupling of sub-optimal peptides and reduced expression and stability on the cell surface. ERp57 also contains two thioredoxin active-site sequences, CGHC and an estrogen-binding domain. ERp57 is induced by both estrogen and leuteinizing-hormone-releasing hormone in the hippocampus..

About PDIA3
This gene encodes a protein of the endoplasmic reticulum that interacts with lectin chaperones calreticulin and calnexin to modulate folding of newly synthesized glycoproteins. The protein was once thought to be a phospholipase; however, it has been demonstrated that the protein actually has protein disulfide isomerase activity. It is thought that complexes of lectins and this protein mediate protein folding by promoting formation of disulfide bonds in their glycoprotein substrates. This protein also functions as a molecular chaperone that prevents the formation of protein aggregates. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]
