Related Product Information for
anti-CANX antibody
Calnexin is calcium-binding protein that interacts with newly synthesized glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. It may be involved in assisting protein assembly or in the retention within the ER of unassembled protein subunits. It seems to play a major role in the ER quality control apparatus via the retention of incorrectly folded proteins.

NCBI Summary for CANX
This gene encodes a member of the calnexin family of molecular chaperones. The encoded protein is a calcium-binding, endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated protein that interacts transiently with newly synthesized N-linked glycoproteins, facilitating protein folding and assembly. It may also play a central role in the quality control of protein folding by retaining incorrectly folded protein subunits within the ER for degradation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been described. [provided by RefSeq]
UniProt Comments for CANX
Calnexin: a calcium-binding protein of the calreticulin family. A type I membrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum .Interacts with newly synthesized glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum.
