FAM21EP


Description

The FAM21EP (family with sequence similarity 21 member E, pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 10.

FAM21EP, also known as Family with sequence similarity 21, member E, is a protein-coding gene in humans. Its encoded protein, FAM21EP, is associated with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the cellular compartment responsible for protein synthesis and folding. While the exact function of FAM21EP remains unknown, studies suggest its potential involvement in protein folding, cellular stress response, and autophagy regulation.

The precise function of FAM21EP remains unclear, but studies have indicated potential roles in protein folding, cellular stress response, and the regulation of autophagy. It has been linked to the ubiquitin-proteasome system, suggesting involvement in protein degradation. Additionally, its association with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) points towards a possible role in ER stress management.

FAM21EP is also known as -.
