| UniProt functional annotation for P48643 | |||
| UniProt code: P48643. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Component of the chaperonin-containing T-complex (TRiC), a molecular chaperone complex that assists the folding of proteins upon ATP hydrolysis (PubMed:25467444). The TRiC complex mediates the folding of WRAP53/TCAB1, thereby regulating telomere maintenance (PubMed:25467444). As part of the TRiC complex may play a role in the assembly of BBSome, a complex involved in ciliogenesis regulating transports vesicles to the cilia (PubMed:20080638). The TRiC complex plays a role in the folding of actin and tubulin (Probable). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20080638, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25467444, ECO:0000305}. | |
| Subunit: | Component of the chaperonin-containing T-complex (TRiC), a heterooligomeric complex of about 850 to 900 kDa that forms two stacked rings, 12 to 16 nm in diameter (PubMed:20080638, PubMed:25467444). Interacts with PACRG (PubMed:14532270). Interacts with DNAAF4 (By similarity). Interacts with DLEC1 (PubMed:33144677). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P80316, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14532270, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20080638, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25467444, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33144677}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20080638}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14654843, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20080638}. | |
| Induction: | Down-regulated in response to enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16548883}. | |
| Disease: | Neuropathy, hereditary sensory, with spastic paraplegia, autosomal recessive (HSNSP) [MIM:256840]: A disease characterized by spastic paraplegia and progressive distal sensory neuropathy leading to mutilating ulcerations of the upper and lower limbs. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16399879}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the TCP-1 chaperonin family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=BAA07894.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
