Anti-RETREG1 / FAM134B / JK-1

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. The protein encoded by this gene is a cis-Golgi transmembrane protein that may be necessary for the long-term survival of nociceptive and autonomic ganglion neurons. Mutations in this gene are a cause of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type IIB (HSAN IIB), and this gene may also play a role in susceptibility to vascular dementia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. Protein function: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-anchored autophagy regulator which mediates ER delivery into lysosomes through sequestration into autophagosomes (PubMed:26040720, PubMed:31930741, PubMed:34338405). Promotes membrane remodeling and ER scission via its membrane bending capacity and targets the fragments into autophagosomes via interaction with ATG8 family proteins (PubMed:26040720, PubMed:31930741, PubMed:34338405). Active under basal conditions (PubMed:34338405). Required for collagen quality control in a LIR motif-dependent manner. Required for long-term survival of nociceptive and autonomic ganglion neurons (PubMed:19838196, PubMed:26040720). [The UniProt Consortium]
