Protein
Endoplasmic reticulum junction formation protein lunapark
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Function
Plays a role in tubular endoplasmic reticulum network formation and maintenance. Works in conjunction with the ER shaping proteins (reticulons RTN1 and RTN2, YOP1), and in antagonism to SEY1 to maintain the network in a dynamic equilibrium. May counterbalance SEY1-directed polygon formation by promoting polygon loss through ring closure.
Similarity
Belongs to the lunapark family.
