Description
RRBP1 (Ribosome Binding Protein 1) encodes a large, membrane-associated protein that binds ribosomes and is essential for maintaining the structure of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER). It plays a critical role in protein translocation, secretion, and ER morphology. RRBP1 is highly expressed in secretory tissues and is implicated in various cancers and developmental disorders.

Protein Summary
RRBP1 is a 1,410-amino acid transmembrane protein localized to the rough ER. It contains a ribosome-binding domain and a coiled-coil region that mediates ER membrane curvature. The protein is essential for efficient protein translocation and secretion, particularly in cells with high secretory demand.
