Description

TXNDC12 encodes a 19 kDa thioredoxin domain-containing protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. It functions as a protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family member, catalyzing thiol-disulfide exchange reactions essential for proper protein folding and redox homeostasis. The protein is also known as ERp19 or TLP19.

Protein Summary

TXNDC12 encodes a 172-amino acid protein (ERp19) with a single thioredoxin-like domain containing a CXXC active site motif. It localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and acts as a chaperone and oxidoreductase, facilitating disulfide bond formation and rearrangement during protein folding. The protein is ubiquitously expressed with highest levels in liver and kidney.
