Gene:
UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase-like 1
Gene ID:
198173
Symbol:
UGCGL1
Species:
1000
Description:
Recognizes glycoproteins with minor folding defects. Reglucosylates single N-glycans near the misfolded part of the protein, thus providing quality control for protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum. Reglucosylated proteins are recognized by calreticulin for recycling to the endoplasmic reticulum and refolding or degradation.
