Protein Domain : ER membrane protein complex subunit 7, beta-sandwich domain

Primary Identifier  IPR019008 Type  Domain
Short Name  EMC7_beta_sandwich
description  This is the β-sandwich domain found in ER membrane protein complex subunit 7 (EMC7) [, ], which is an integral membrane component of the EMC. EMC is widely conserved and involved in membrane protein biogenesis. It mediates the insertion into endoplasmic reticulum membranes of newly synthesized membrane proteins in an energy-independent manner, both post-translational insertion of tail-anchored proteins and co-translational insertion of multipass membrane proteins [, ]. This entry includes UPF0620 protein C83.10 from S. pombe, an orthologue from animal EMC7.This domain is also found in nodal modulators, which have been identified as part of a protein complex that participates in the nodal signalling pathway during vertebrate development [].
