All UniProt accessions (4): Q9C0E8, C9JL94, C9JM95, H7BZA1
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-shaping membrane protein that plays a role in determining ER morphology. Involved in the stabilization of nascent three-way ER tubular junctions within the ER network. May also play a role as a curvature-stabilizing protein within the three-way ER tubular junction network. May be involved in limb development. Is involved in central nervous system development.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer; homodimerization requires the C4-type zinc finger motif and decreases during mitosis in a phosphorylation-dependent manner.
Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in neural precursor cells, where it is detected at the growth-cone-like structure and branching sites of neurite-like processes.
Post-translational modifications. Myristoylated; myristoylation is necessary for the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) three-way ER tubular junction formation, but is not required neither for membrane translocation, membrane topology formation, nor for the specific localization to ER membranes. Phosphorylated. Phosphorylation occurs at Ser-177, Ser-182, Ser-217, Ser-227, Ser-321 and Ser-384 during interphase. Phosphorylation occurs at Ser-114, Ser-153, Ser-194, Thr-211 and Ser-353 during mitosis; these phosphorylations reduce both its homodimerization and the ER three-way tubular junction formation. Subject to proteasomal degradation following phosphorylation during mitosis.
Disease relevance. Neurodevelopmental disorder with epilepsy and hypoplasia of the corpus callosum (NEDEHCC) [MIM:618090] An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe psychomotor delay, intellectual disability, hypotonia, epilepsy, and corpus callosum hypoplasia. Some patients show mild cerebellar hypoplasia and atrophy. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. The transmembrane domain 1 and 2 function as a signal-anchor and stop-transfer sequence, respectively, generating a double-spanning integral membrane protein with a N- and C-terminal cytoplasmic orientation. Transmembrane domain 1 and 2 are probably sufficient to mediate membrane translocation and topology formation in a N-myristoylation-independent manner. Transmembrane domain 2 is sufficient to block the protein secretion pathway. The two coiled-coil domains are necessary for its endoplasmic reticulum (ER) three-way tubular junction localization. The C4-type zinc finger motif is necessary both for its ER three-way tubular junction localization and formation.
Similarity. Belongs to the lunapark family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 109 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
