DESCRIPTION

Also known as TMM33_HUMAN, TMEM33, DB83. Acts as a regulator of the tubular endoplasmic reticulum (ER) network by modulating intracellular calcium homeostasis. Mechanistically, stimulates PKD2 calcium-dependent activity (By similarity). Suppresses the RTN3/4-induced formation of the ER tubules (PubMed:25612671). Positively regulates PERK-mediated and IRE1-mediated unfolded protein response signaling (PubMed:26268696). Plays an essential role in VEGF-mediated release of Ca(2+) from ER stores during angiogenesis (PubMed:30760708). Also plays a role in the modulation of innate immune signaling through the cGAS-STING pathway by interacting with RNF26 (PubMed:32614325). Participates in lipid metabolism by acting as a downstream effector of the pyruvate kinase/PKM. Forms a complex with RNF5 to facilitate polyubiquitination and subsequent degradation of SCAP on the ER membrane (PubMed:34487377). Interacts with EIF2AK3 (PubMed:26268696). Interacts with ARL6IP1, isoform RTN1-A of RTN1, isoform RTN2-B of RTN2, isoform 3 of RTN3 and isoform 3 of RTN4 (PubMed:25612671). Interacts with RNF5 (PubMed:34487377). Interacts with RNF26 (PubMed:32614325). Interacts with PKD2 (By similarity).
