OEP61

Outer envelope protein 61

554 amino acids

Plays a role in protein import into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). May function as chaperone docking protein during post-translational protein translocation into the ER. Chaperone receptor mediating Hsp70-dependent protein targeting to chloroplasts. Interacts specifically with some chloroplast precursors, but not with mitochondrial precursors. Able to select precursors for delivery to the chloroplast translocase independently of Hsp70.
