General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term calreticulin
UniProt ID CALX_HELTU
Name Calnexin homolog
Gene Names
Taxonomy Helianthus tuberosus

General annotation

Function Calcium-binding protein that interacts with newly synthesized glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. It may act in assisting protein assembly and/or in the retention within the ER of unassembled protein subunits. It seems to play a major role in the quality control apparatus of the ER by the retention of incorrectly folded proteins (By similarity).
Subcellular location Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (By similarity).
