General description of the gene and the encoded protein(s) using information from HGNC and Ensembl, as well as predictions made by the Human Protein Atlas project.
Gene namei
Official gene symbol, which is typically a short form of the gene name, according to HGNC.
Assigned HPA protein class(es) for the encoded protein(s).
Disease related genes Human disease related genes
Predicted locationi
All transcripts of all genes have been analyzed regarding the location(s) of corresponding protein based on prediction methods for signal peptides and transmembrane regions.
Genes with at least one transcript predicted to encode a secreted protein, according to prediction methods or to UniProt location data, have been further annotated and classified with the aim to determine if the corresponding protein(s) are secreted or actually retained in intracellular locations or membrane-attached.
Remaining genes, with no transcript predicted to encode a secreted protein, will be assigned the prediction-based location(s).
The annotated location overrules the predicted location, so that a gene encoding a predicted secreted protein that has been annotated as intracellular will have intracellular as the final location.
Gene information from Ensembl and Entrez, as well as links to available gene identifiers are displayed here. Information was retrieved from Ensembl if not indicated otherwise.

Component of the UFM1 ribosome E3 ligase (UREL) complex, a multiprotein complex that catalyzes ufmylation of endoplasmic reticulum-docked proteins 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. The UREL complex plays a key role in ribosome recycling by mediating mono-ufmylation of the RPL26/uL24 subunit of the 60S ribosome following ribosome dissociation: ufmylation weakens the junction between post-termination 60S subunits and SEC61 translocons, promoting release and recycling of the large ribosomal subunit from the endoplasmic reticulum membrane 10,11. Ufmylation of RPL26/uL24 and subsequent 60S ribosome recycling either take place after normal termination of translation or after ribosome stalling during cotranslational translocation at the endoplasmic reticulum 12,13,14. Within the UREL complex, DDRGK1 tethers the complex to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane to restrict its activity to endoplasmic reticulum-docked ribosomes and acts as an ufmylation 'reader': following RPL26/uL24 ufmylation, DDRGK1 specifically binds to ufmylated RPL26/uL24 via its UFIM motif, resulting in stable association between the 60S ribosome and the UREL complex, followed by dissociation of the 60S ribosome subunit from the endoplasmic reticulum membrane 15,16,17,18. The UREL complex is also involved in reticulophagy in response to endoplasmic reticulum stress by promoting ufmylation of proteins such as CYB5R3 and RPN1, thereby promoting lysosomal degradation of ufmylated proteins 19,20. Ufmylation-dependent reticulophagy inhibits the unfolded protein response (UPR) by regulating ERN1/IRE1-alpha stability 21,22. Acts as a regulator of immunity by promoting differentiation of B-cells into plasma cells: acts by promoting expansion of the endoplasmic reticulum and regulating the unfolded protein response (UPR) (By similarity). May also be required for TRIP4 ufmylation 23. May play a role in NF-kappa-B-mediated transcription through regulation of the phosphorylation and the degradation of NFKBIA, the inhibitor of NF-kappa-B 24. Plays a role in cartilage development through SOX9, inhibiting the ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation of this transcriptional regulator 25....show less
