BLZF1


Description

The BLZF1 (basic leucine zipper nuclear factor 1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.

Golgin-45 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BLZF1 gene. BLZF1 has been shown to interact with GORASP2. This article incorporates text from the United States National Library of Medicine, which is in the public domain.

Golgin-45, encoded by the BLZF1 gene, plays a crucial role in maintaining normal Golgi structure and facilitates the transportation of proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi apparatus and ultimately to the cell surface.

BLZF1 is also known as GOLGIN-45, JEM-1, JEM-1s, JEM1.
