TMEM147 also known as NBR1 is a transmembrane protein with a molecular mass of approximately 28 kDa. It resides primarily in the endoplasmic reticulum and is widely expressed across various tissues such as the brain and liver. The protein spans the membrane multiple times indicating its role in maintaining cellular structure and function within the membrane environment. TMEM147 is often associated with regulatory processes that affect membrane-related activities.
Biological function summary
TMEM147 interacts with proteins in the ribosome maturation process and is involved in assembling the nuclear pore complex. It forms part of the N-oligosaccharyltransferase (OST) complex which plays an essential role in protein modification through glycosylation. This complex activity helps in the proper folding and stability of proteins necessary for cell function. Therefore TMEM147 influences cellular processes by regulating the maturation and transport of proteins within cells.
Pathways
TMEM147 contributes significantly to the N-glycosylation and protein biosynthesis pathways. Within these pathways the protein interacts with enzymes like STT3A and STT3B which are key catalytic components of the oligosaccharyltransferase complex. Through this interaction TMEM147 ensures proper protein folding and efficiency in glycoprotein processing. It also influences cellular homeostasis and stress responses by coordinating with proteins related to ER stress pathways.
TMEM147 shows a connection to neurodegenerative diseases and certain types of cancer. Studies highlight its involvement in Alzheimer's disease where it interacts with the γ-secretase complex including proteins like presenilin-1 (PSEN1) affecting amyloid-beta precursor protein processing. In cancer abnormal TMEM147 expression correlates with altered N-glycosylation patterns leading to changes in tumor cell behavior. This association suggests TMEM147's potential role as a biomarker or therapeutic target in disease management.
