Edem2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable mannosyl-oligosaccharide 1,2-alpha-mannosidase activity. Predicted to be involved in ERAD pathway; mannoprotein catabolic process; and positive regulation of retrograde protein transport, ER to cytosol. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Orthologous to human EDEM2 (ER degradation enhancing alpha-mannosidase like protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 Edem2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
