General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction depletion of the protein disulfide formation activity of the enzyme in the endoplasmic reticulum results in cell death. Knockdown of the enzyme results in no detectable increase in expression of the ER Hsp70 chaperone BiP nor evidence of Xbp-1 splicing when mea­sured on the final day of knockdown, indicating that an unfolded protein response is not being induced Homo sapiens
metabolism VKOR contributes to an oxidizing endoplasmic reticulum environment under conditions of endoplasmic reticulum oxi­doreductin and peroxiredoxin IV deficiency Homo sapiens
physiological function vitamin K epoxide reductase contributes to protein disulfide formation and redox homeostasis within the endoplasmic reticulum,depletion of the ac­tivity results in cell death, both peroxiredoxin IV and VKOR support cell growth and viability in the face of endoplasmic reticulum oxi­doreductin depletion Homo sapiens
