Rabbit anti-Human DNAJC10 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q8IXB1

Target Species

Human

Target Name

DNAJC10

Target Full Name

DnaJ homolog subfamily C member 10

Target Function

Endoplasmic reticulum disulfide reductase involved both in the correct folding of proteins and degradation of misfolded proteins. Required for efficient folding of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum by catalyzing the removal of non-native disulfide bonds formed during the folding of proteins, such as LDLR. Also involved in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) by reducing incorrect disulfide bonds in misfolded glycoproteins recognized by EDEM1. Interaction with HSPA5 is required its activity, not for the disulfide reductase activity, but to facilitate the release of DNAJC10 from its substrate. Promotes apoptotic signaling pathway in response to endoplasmic reticulum stress.

Target Subcellular Location

Endoplasmic reticulum lumen.

Target Synonyms

DNAJC10; ERDJ5; UNQ495/PRO1012DnaJ homolog subfamily C member 10; EC 1.8.4.-; Endoplasmic reticulum DNA J domain-containing protein 5; ER-resident protein ERdj5; ERdj5; Macrothioredoxin; MTHr

Target Background

This gene encodes an endoplasmic reticulum co-chaperone which is part of the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation complex involved in recognizing and degrading misfolded proteins. The encoded protein reduces incorrect disulfide bonds in misfolded glycoproteins. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
