8.A.183.2.1
Lipid droplet-regulated VLDL assembly factor, AUP1 of 410 aas and possibly as many as 4 TMSs at residue positions 20 - 60 ( 2 TMSs) + 1 at residue 200 + 1 at about residue 340. It plays a role in the translocation of terminally misfolded proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen to the cytoplasm and their degradation by a proteasome.  It also plays a role in lipid droplet formation and induces lipid droplet clustering (Klemm et al. 2011).  It also regulates the ER-associated degradation and polyubiquitination of NKCC2 (Frachon et al. 2024).
