    text
  • located in multiple cellular compartments
  • not an integral membrane protein of the ER, but rather a peripheral membrane protein dynamically associated with the Golgi apparatus
  • localizes to the cytosol and Golgi
  • PPIB colocalized with Dymeclin and displayed a perinuclear distribution, likely aggregating within Golgi and/or ER structures
  • basic FUNCTION
  • may be involved in proteoglycans metabolism and in intracellular digestion of proteins
  • involved in Golgi organization and intracellular vesicle traffic
  • could influence vesicle traffic at a number of levels, including the budding, movement, sorting, and fusion of vesicle membranes, possibly by acting as a membrane-spanning adaptor and could also play a direct role in Golgi organization
  • peripheral nonanchored Golgi protein capable of shuttling between cellular compartments
