  • a predicted hydrophobic alpha-helical transmembrane domain of only 11 AAs , which is shorter than reported for most resident ER integral membrane proteins, which are typically 14–17 hydrophobic AAs in length
  • DNAJ molecular chaperone homology domain
  • lack the -KDEL sequence found on most resident ER luminal chaperones

    basic FUNCTION
  • may be a heat shock protein, acting as a cochaperone with an HSP70 protein
  • may be involved in either protein folding or ER-associated degradation
  • DNAJC10 and DNAJB9 play important roles in the ER-associated degradation (ERAD) of unfolded secretory proteins
  • endoplasmic reticulum chaperone co-factor that assists with destruction of misfolded secretory proteins
  • mobile soluble luminal protein that is recruited to the misfolded secretory protein quality control machinery

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • DNAJB9, DNAJC10 promote turnover of misfolded SFTPC and this activity is dependent on their ability to stimulate HSPA5 ATPase activity
  • associate with the integral membrane protein, DERL1
  • cell & other
