Schematic representation of MrERGIC-53 sequence features. (A) The precursor protein contains an N-terminal signal peptide sequence of 19 amino acids, which is absent in the mature protein. (B) Further, the L-type lectin domain (LTLD) (amino acid nos. 24 to 247) and coiled-coil region (amino acid nos. 254 to 288) are characteristic features of the protein. A transmembrane domain (amino acid nos. 470–493) and a short cytoplasmic domain (amino acid nos. 492–504) are also found toward the C-terminus
