Target data

Function

Involved in vesicular protein trafficking. Mainly functions in the early secretory pathway but also in post-Golgi membranes. Thought to act as cargo receptor at the lumenal side for incorporation of secretory cargo molecules into transport vesicles and to be involved in vesicle coat formation at the cytoplasmic side. In COPII vesicle-mediated anterograde transport involved in the transport of GPI-anchored proteins and proposed to act together with TMED10 as their cargo receptor; the function specifically implies SEC24C and SEC24D of the COPII vesicle coat and lipid raft-like microdomains of the ER. Recognizes GPI anchors structural remodeled in the ER by PGAP1 and MPPE1. In COPI vesicle-mediated retrograde transport inhibits the GTPase-activating activity of ARFGAP1 towards ARF1 thus preventing immature uncoating and allowing cargo selection to take place. Involved in trafficking of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Regulates F2RL1, OPRM1 and P2RY4 exocytic trafficking from the Golgi to the plasma membrane thus contributing to receptor resensitization. Facilitates CASR maturation and stabilization in the early secretory pathway and increases CASR plasma membrane targeting. Proposed to be involved in organization of intracellular membranes such as the maintenance of the Golgi apparatus. May also play a role in the biosynthesis of secreted cargo such as eventual processing.

Activity summary

Transmembrane Emp24 protein transport domain containing 2 also known as TMED2 is a protein that plays an important role in the transport of proteins between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus. TMED2 weighs approximately 23 kDa. Research indicates TMED2 as highly expressed in various tissues showing a significant presence in the liver and kidney. It acts as part of the p24 family of proteins which are involved in cargo trafficking within intracellular membranes.

Biological function summary

TMED2 facilitates the sorting and transportation of proteins by forming a coat around vesicles enabling their movement between cellular compartments. It is an essential member of the p24 protein complex which functions as a carrier in the early secretory pathway. This complex supports the maintenance of cellular protein balance and ensures proteins reach their proper destinations efficiently.

Pathways

TMED2 contributes to the vesicular trafficking pathway which controls the flow of proteins within the cell. It participates in the secretory pathway closely interacting with COPI and COPII proteins that form vesicle coats important for cargo selection and vesicle budding. TMED2 interacts particularly with proteins like TMED10 and TMED9 forming a network that underpins its role in vesical transport from the ER to the Golgi.

Associated diseases and disorders

TMED2 has connections to certain metabolic disorders and cancer. Improper function or expression of TMED2 can lead to defects in protein trafficking which can disrupt cellular homeostasis and contribute to conditions like congenital disorders of glycosylation. Moreover alterations in TMED2 levels have been observed in some cancer types such as colorectal cancer. It interacts with cancer-related proteins such as GRP94 influencing tumor progression and metastasis.
