Supplementary information

EMC4 also known as Endoplasmic Reticulum Membrane Protein Complex Subunit 4 is a protein involved in the insertion of membrane proteins into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). It has a molecular mass of approximately 29 kDa and is expressed widespread in various tissues. EMC4 is part of the EMC complex a multi-subunit complex in the ER contributing to the processes of protein folding and assembly in the cell's secretory pathway.
Biological function summary

The EMC4 protein functions as a chaperone assisting in the proper folding and integration of polytopic proteins. It is a part of the EMC complex that works as a stabilizing agent for nascent polypeptides preventing misfolding and facilitating protein maturation. This complex plays a role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and challenges the ER stress response ensuring that proteins reach their functional conformation.

Pathways

EMC4 has a critical role in the protein secretory pathway and ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway. The EMC complex interacts with signal recognition particles and the translocon complex supporting the translocation and integration of proteins into the ER membrane. This involvement is key to processing newly synthesized proteins correctly collaborating with proteins like Sec61 which form part of the translocon complex.

Anomalies in EMC4 expression or function have connections to neurodegenerative diseases and congenital disorders of glycosylation. Altered EMC4 function can disrupt ER homeostasis contributing to neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's disease where it relates to proteins such as amyloid precursor protein (APP). Furthermore EMC4 mutations may lead to glycosylation defects impacting the proper functioning of proteins involved in cellular communication and structure.

Target data

Part of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein complex (EMC) that enables the energy-independent insertion into endoplasmic reticulum membranes of newly synthesized membrane proteins (PubMed : 29242231, PubMed : 29809151, PubMed : 30415835, PubMed : 32439656, PubMed : 32459176). Preferentially accommodates proteins with transmembrane domains that are weakly hydrophobic or contain destabilizing features such as charged and aromatic residues (PubMed : 29242231, PubMed : 29809151, PubMed : 30415835). Involved in the cotranslational insertion of multi-pass membrane proteins in which stop-transfer membrane-anchor sequences become ER membrane spanning helices (PubMed : 29809151, PubMed : 30415835). It is also required for the post-translational insertion of tail-anchored/TA proteins in endoplasmic reticulum membranes (PubMed : 29242231, PubMed : 29809151). By mediating the proper cotranslational insertion of N-terminal transmembrane domains in an N-exo topology, with translocated N-terminus in the lumen of the ER, controls the topology of multi-pass membrane proteins like the G protein-coupled receptors (PubMed : 30415835). By regulating the insertion of various proteins in membranes, it is indirectly involved in many cellular processes (Probable).
