Background Information
Homocysteine-responsive endoplasmic reticulum-resident ubiquitin-like domain member 1 protein (HERPUD1), also called HERP or MIF1, is component of the endoplasmic reticulum quality control (ERQC) system also called ER-associated degradation (ERAD) involved in ubiquitin-dependent degradation of misfolded endoplasmic reticulum proteins. HERP is strongly induced by ER stress but rapidly degraded by proteasome. HERP interacts with members of the ubiquilin family, which function as a shuttle factor to deliver ubiquitinated substrates to the proteasome for degradation. HERP is present in activated microglia in senile plaques in the brain of patients with Alzheimer disease, and there is evidence suggesting HERP increase nigro-striatal dopaminergic activity and is able to improve symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease, levodopa-related dyskinesias and Tardive dyskinesia. MW of HERP is 54 kDa (PMID: 23620059).
