UFD1 Polyclonal Antibody

caution:The sequence shown here is derived from an Ensembl automatic analysis pipeline and should be considered as preliminary data.,disease:UFD1L gene hemizygosity is the cause of some of the catch 22-associated developmental defects whose notable examples are the DiGeorge syndrome (DGS), the velo-cardio-facial syndrome (VCFS) and the Opitz G/BBB syndrome.,function:Essential component of the ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic pathway which degrades ubiquitin fusion proteins. The ternary complex containing UFD1L, VCP and NPLOC4 binds ubiquitinated proteins and is necessary for the export of misfolded proteins from the ER to the cytoplasm, where they are degraded by the proteasome. The NPLOC4-UFD1L-VCP complex regulates spindle disassembly at the end of mitosis and is necessary for the formation of a closed nuclear envelope. It may be involved in the development of some ectoderm-derived structures.,pathway:Protein degradation; proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent pathway.,similarity:Belongs to the UFD1 family.,subunit:Heterodimer with NPLOC4, this heterodimer binds VCP and inhibits Golgi membrane fusion.,tissue specificity:Found in adult heart, skeletal muscle and pancreas, and in fetal liver and kidney.,
