Erp44 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable protein disulfide isomerase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including protein folding; response to endoplasmic reticulum stress; and response to unfolded protein. Predicted to be located in cell surface; endoplasmic reticulum; and endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment. Orthologous to human ERP44 (endoplasmic reticulum protein 44).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Erp44 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
