RAMP4 (ribosome-attached membrane protein 4), also designated SERP1 (stress-associated endoplasmic reticulum protein family member 1) and RAMP4-2 (ribosome-associated membrane protein 4-2), also known as SERP2 (stress-associated endoplasmic reticulum protein family member 2), are sin- gle-pass type IV membrane proteins that localize to the ER and belong to the RAMP4 family. RAMP4 and RAMP4-2 may interact with target proteins during translocation into the lumen of the ER and protect unfolded target proteins against degradation during ER stress. After termination of ER stress, RAMP4 and RAMP4-2 are involved in facilitating glycosylation of target proteins. RAMP4 consists of

66 amino acids and is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 3, whereas RAMP4-2 is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome

13 and is composed of

61 amino acids. REFERENCES 1. Wei, J. and Hendershot, L.M. 1996. Protein folding and assembly in the endoplasmic reticulum. EXS 77: 41-55. 2. Trombetta, E.S. and Helenius, A. 1998.
