About Ern1

Chromosome 11: 106,285,476-106,378,678 reverse strand.GRCm39:CM001004.3

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 133 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 17 phenotypes. Broad expression in adrenal adult (RPKM 76.6), ovary adult (RPKM 25.1) and 15 other tissues.

Summary

Enables endoribonuclease activity; protein homodimerization activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including IRE1-mediated unfolded protein response; mRNA cleavage; and positive regulation of nitrogen compound metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response; intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to endoplasmic reticulum stress; and protein autophosphorylation. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane; mitochondrion; and nuclear inner membrane. Part of AIP1-IRE1 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; connective tissue; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and tooth. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma. Orthologous to human ERN1 (endoplasmic reticulum to nucleus signaling 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
