    text
  • primarily localized in the endoplasmic reticulum
  • display a restricted distribution and are much less abundant than CACNG2
    • basic FUNCTION
  • part of conserved protein family that acts in the selective transport and maturation of TGFalpha family proteins
  • acting as chaperones for other proteins
  • can affect the trafficking of AMPARS (GRIA1, GRIA2, GRIA3, and GRIN2B), they were not detected on the surface of neurons and failed to alter the kinetics of endogenous AMPARs
  • can modestly enhance the surface expression of AMPARs in neurons, in the absence of CACNG2
