Recombinant Human Glucosidase 2 subunit beta (PRKCSH)

Uniprot Id

P14314

Target Species

Human

Target Name

PRKCSH

Target Full Name

Glucosidase 2 subunit beta

Target Function

Regulatory subunit of glucosidase II that cleaves sequentially the 2 innermost alpha-1,3-linked glucose residues from the Glc(2)Man(9)GlcNAc(2) oligosaccharide precursor of immature glycoproteins. Required for efficient PKD1/Polycystin-1 biogenesis and trafficking to the plasma membrane of the primary cilia.

Target Involvement

Polycystic liver disease 1 (PCLD1)

Target Subcellular Location

Endoplasmic reticulum.

Target Research Area

Signal Transduction

Target Background

This gene encodes the beta-subunit of glucosidase II, an N-linked glycan-processing enzyme in the endoplasmic reticulum. The encoded protein is an acidic phosphoprotein known to be a substrate for protein kinase C. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant polycystic liver disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
