EDEM2 ER degradation enhancing alpha-mannosidase like protein 2

Gene ID: 55741, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: C20orf31; C20orf49; bA4204.1

Summary

In the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), misfolded proteins are retrotranslocated to the cytosol and degraded by the proteasome in a process known as ER-associated degradation (ERAD). EDEM2 belongs to a family of proteins involved in ERAD of glycoproteins (Mast et al., 2005 [PubMed 15537790]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
