Application

Anti-Derlin-3 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Derlin-3 is involved in the degradation of misfolded glycoproteins in the ER. Derlin-3 shares ~30% sequence identity with Derlin-1 and spans the lipid bilayer of the ER four times, showing structural similarity to Derlin-1. It is a component of the mammalian ER-associated degradation (ERAD) mechanism and is upregulated by unfolded protein response (UPR). Overexpression of this gene leads to increase in degradation of misfolded glycoprotein, whereas its knockdown blocks degradation. Derlin-3 also interacts with the mammalian orthologs of the yeast Hrd1p/Hrd3p ubiquitin-ligase complex.

General description

Derlin-3 is a mammalian homologues of yeast Der1p, a transmembrane protein required for yeast endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD). Derlin 3 is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 22q11.23. It is expressed in the ER and is a member of the derlin protein family.
