The function, structure, and origins of the ER membrane protein complex
Open accessAbstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site of membrane protein insertion, folding, and assembly in eukaryotes. Over the past few years, a combination of genetic and biochemical studies have implicated an abundant factor termed the ER membrane protein complex (EMC) in several aspects of membrane protein biogenesis. This large nine-protein complex is built around a deeply conserved core formed by the EMC3–EMC6 subcomplex. EMC3 belongs to the universally conserved Oxa1 superfamily of membrane protein transporters, whereas EMC6 is an ancient, widely conserved obligate partner. EMC has an established role in the insertion of transmembrane domains (TMDs) and less understood roles during the later steps of membrane protein folding and assembly. Several recent structures suggest hypotheses about the mechanism(s) of TMD insertion by EMC, with various biochemical and proteomics studies beginning to reveal the range of EMC's membrane protein substrates.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
