Disease
ERLN1_HUMAN Autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia type 62. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function
ERLN1_HUMAN Component of the ERLIN1/ERLIN2 complex which mediates the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs). Involved in regulation of cellular cholesterol homeostasis by regulation the SREBP signaling pathway (PubMed:37683630). Binds cholesterol and may promote ER retention of the SCAP-SREBF complex (PubMed:24217618).[1] [2] [3] (Microbial infection) Required early in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection to initiate RNA replication, and later in the infection to support infectious virus production.[4]
