Abstract excerpt
The thiol-disulfide oxidoreductases of the PDI (protein disulfide isomerase) family assist in disulfide-bond formation in the ER (endoplasmic reticulum). In the present study, we have shown that the previously uncharacterized PDI family member TMX4 (thioredoxin-like transmembrane 4) is an N-glycosylated type I membrane protein that localizes to the ER. We also demonstrate that TMX4 contains a single ER-luminal...
