Function | Component of the multi-pass translocon (MPT) complex that mediates insertion of multi-pass membrane proteins into the lipid bilayer of membranes (PubMed:32820719, PubMed:36261522). The MPT complex takes over after the SEC61 complex: following membrane insertion of the first few transmembrane segments of proteins by the SEC61 complex, the MPT complex occludes the lateral gate of the SEC61 complex to promote insertion of subsequent transmembrane regions (PubMed:36261522). May antagonize Nodal signaling and subsequent organization of axial structures during mesodermal patterning, via its interaction with NOMO (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in pancreas and skeletal muscle and, at lower levels, in heart. |

Background
NCLN Antibody: Nicalin, along with its binding partner Nomo, is a novel signaling antagonist to Nodals, signaling factors of the TGF-β superfamily that play a key role in vertebrate development. Nicalin is distantly related to Nicastrin, a component of the Alzheimer's disease-associated gamma-secretase, and is thought to have a similar function. Another protein, TMEM147, has also been recently identified as associating with Nicalin and NOMO as part of the gamma-secretase-like complex.
