MLEC - malectin Gene
Also Known as KIAA0152
Species: Homo sapiens
About MLEC
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants) and 201 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in colon (RPKM 16.3), thyroid (RPKM 15.6) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes the carbohydrate-binding protein malectin which is a Type I membrane-anchored endoplasmic reticulum protein. This protein has an affinity for Glc2Man9GlcNAc2 (G2M9) N-glycans and is involved in regulating glycosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum. This protein has also been shown to interact with ribophorin I and may be involved in the directing the degradation of misfolded proteins. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
