ID:PERP1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Plasma cell-induced resident endoplasmic reticulum protein; Short=Plasma cell-induced resident ER protein; Short=pERp1; AltName: Full=Proapoptotic caspase adapter protein; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Associates with immunoglobulin M (IgM) heavy and light chains and promotes IgM assembly and secretion. May exert its effect by acting as a molecular chaperone or as an oxidoreductase as it displays a low level of oxidoreductase activity (By similarity). Isoform 2 may be involved in regulation of apoptosis. SUBUNIT: Part of the ER chaperone complex, a multi-protein complex in the endoplasmic reticulum containing a large number of molecular chaperones which associates with unassembled incompletely folded immunoglobulin heavy chains (By similarity). Isoform 2 interacts with CASP2 and CASP9. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 1: Endoplasmic reticulum (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 2: Cytoplasm. Note=Diffuse granular localization in the cytoplasm surrounding the nucleus. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed with highest levels in adult brain, small intestine and lymphoid tissues such as thymus and spleen. Expression is frequently lower in intestinal-type gastric cancer. INDUCTION: Down-regulated in primary B-cells early after ligand- stimulated activation. PTM: Forms an interchain disulfide bond with IgM monomers (By similarity). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the PERP1 family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAF36110.1; Type=Erroneous translation; Note=Wrong choice of frame;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
