Summary: Enables cytoskeletal protein binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and misfolded protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including ER-associated misfolded protein catabolic process; protein localization to nucleus; and wound healing, spreading of cells. Acts upstream of or within nuclear membrane organization. Located in endoplasmic reticulum lumen and nuclear envelope. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and urinary system. Used to study focal dystonia and torsion dystonia 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arthrogryposis multiplex congenita-5 and torsion dystonia 1. Orthologous to human TOR1A (torsin family 1 member A).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
