Description

ERP27 (Endoplasmic Reticulum Protein 27) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 12q24.13. It encodes a member of the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family, localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. ERP27 is involved in protein folding and quality control, though it lacks the canonical thioredoxin active site. The gene is expressed in various tissues and has been implicated in cancer and other diseases.

Protein Summary

ERP27 is a 27 kDa endoplasmic reticulum-resident protein belonging to the PDI family. It contains a thioredoxin-like domain but lacks the catalytic cysteine pair, suggesting a role in substrate binding rather than redox catalysis. ERP27 is involved in protein folding and quality control within the ER, and its expression is upregulated under ER stress conditions.
