Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in ERAD pathway; protein secretion; and triglyceride metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within response to endoplasmic reticulum stress. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be part of Derlin-1 retrotranslocation complex and Hrd1p ubiquitin ligase ERAD-L complex. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; liver; neural tube; pancreas; and spleen. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human SEL1L (SEL1L adaptor subunit of SYVN1 ubiquitin ligase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a gene trapped allele exhibit prenatal lethality with impaired exocrine and endocrine pancreatic development. [provided by MGI curators] |
