  • secreted
  • specifically localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites
  • basic FUNCTION
  • may play a role in pathophysiology of liver diseases and may serve as a marker of liver damage
  • MIA2 and MIA3 have a tumour-suppressive function in several malignancies
  • plays a critical role in lipid transportation through the coordinated regulation of the COPII machinery
  • may coordinate with SEC22B to control the release of COPII vesicles from the ER, and thereby the ER-to-Golgi trafficking of proinsulin
  • plays a critical role in the secretion of proteins
  • is important for brain development and function
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS inflammation
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • MIA2 forms a complex with MIA3, a previously characterized cargo receptor for collagen VII, by the interaction of their coiled-coil motifs
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • MIA2 acts as a coreceptor of MIA3 for collagen VII export from the ER
  • PREB recruitment to ER exit sites is organized by its direct interaction with MIA2, a previously characterized collagen cargo receptor component, which functions together with MIA3 at ER exit sites
  • general role for MIA3 in the export of bulky cargoes from the ER and specific requirement for MIA2 in assisting MIA3 to export bulky lipid particles
  • recruitment of PREB by MIA2 contributes to efficient activation of SAR1A in the vicinity of ER exit sites
  • interacts with components of the ER coat protein complex II (COPII) which, when depleted, also cause lipid accumulation in hepatocytes
  • MIA3 recruits membrane-bound macromolecular complexes consisting of MIA2 and PREB to the ER exit sites
  • MIA2/MIA3 complex interacts with the GEF and the GAP of SAR1A and tightly regulates its GTPase cycle to accomplish large cargo secretion
  • MIA2 interacts with vesicle membrane soluble N-ethyl-maleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor SEC22B and this interaction with MIA2 is essential for proinsulin processing
