General description

Three EDEM homologs, EDEM1, EDEM2 and EDEM3 have been identified, which are transcriptionally upregulated upon ER stress by the activated IRE1/Xbp-1 branch. EDEM2 is localized to the ER, mainly as a soluble glycoprotein, interacts with calnexin and lacks mannosidase activity.

Application

Anti-EDEM2 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for indirect immunofluorescence and immunoblotting at a working concentration of 0.5-1.0μg/mL using whole extracts of human HepG2 and rat NRK cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

EDEM2 (ER degradation-enhancing α-mannosidase-like protein 2), a stress-regulated mannosidase-like protein, targets misfolded glycoproteins for degradation in an N-glycan dependent manner. Over-expression of EDEM2 accelerates ERAD (ER-associated degradation) by promoting the release of terminally misfolded glycoproteins from the calnexin cycle, without affecting the rate of degradation of non-glycosylated polypeptides or the maturation of model secretory proteins.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Terminally misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are retrotranslocated to the cytoplasm and degraded by proteasomes through a mechanism known as ER-associated degradation (ERAD). EDEM, a postulated Man8B-binding protein, accelerates the degradation of misfolded proteins in the ER. Here

Various pathologies result from disruptions to or stress of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis, such as Parkinson's disease and most neurodegenerative illnesses, diabetes, pulmonary fibrosis, viral infections, and cancers.

In the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), misfolded proteins are retrotranslocated to the cytosol and degraded by the proteasome in a process known as ER-associated degradation (ERAD). Early in this pathway, a proposed lumenal ER lectin, EDEM, recognizes misfolded glycoproteins in the

Proteostasis alteration and neuroinflammation are typical features of normal aging. We have previously shown that neuroinflammation alters cellular proteostasis through immunoproteasome induction, leading to a transient decrease of proteasome activity. Here, we further investigated the role of acute lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced
