Clusterin

The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted chaperone that can under some stress conditions also be found in the cell cytosol. It has been suggested to be involved in several basic biological events such as cell death, tumor progression, and neurodegenerative disorders. Alternate splicing results in both coding and non-coding variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

Isoform 1:
Functions as extracellular chaperone that prevents aggregation of non native proteins (PubMed:11123922, PubMed:19535339).

Prevents stress-induced aggregation of blood plasma proteins (PubMed:11123922, PubMed:12176985, PubMed:17260971, PubMed:19996109).

Protects cells against apoptosis and against cytolysis by complement (PubMed:2780565).

Intracellular forms interact with ubiquitin and SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes and promote the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins (PubMed:20068069).

Promotes proteasomal degradation of COMMD1 and IKBKB (PubMed:20068069).

Modulates NF-kappa-B transcriptional activity (PubMed:12882985).

A mitochondrial form suppresses BAX-dependent release of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm and inhibit apoptosis (PubMed:16113678, PubMed:17689225).

Plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation (PubMed:19137541).

An intracellular form suppresses stress-induced apoptosis by stabilizing mitochondrial membrane integrity through interaction with HSPA5 (PubMed:22689054).

Secreted form does not affect caspase or BAX-mediated intrinsic apoptosis and TNF-induced NF-kappa-B-activity (PubMed:24073260).

Secreted form act as an important modulator during neuronal differentiation through interaction with STMN3 (By similarity).

Plays a role in the clearance of immune complexes that arise during cell injury (By similarity).

Isoform 6:
Does not affect caspase or BAX-mediated intrinsic apoptosis and TNF-induced NF-kappa-B-activity.

Isoform 4:
Does not affect caspase or BAX-mediated intrinsic apoptosis and TNF-induced NF-kappa-B-activity (PubMed:24073260).

Promotes cell death through interaction with BCL2L1 that releases and activates BAX (PubMed:21567405).

Isoform 1: Secreted. Can retrotranslocate from the secretory compartments to the cytosol upon cellular stress.
Isoform 4: Cytoplasm. Keeps cytoplasmic localization in stressed and unstressed cell.
Isoform 6: Cytoplasm. Keeps cytoplasmic localization in stressed and unstressed cell.
Mitochondrion membrane; Mitochondrion; Nucleus; Cytoplasm; Cytosol; Microsome; Endoplasmic reticulum; Perinuclear region; Chromaffin granule. Secreted isoforms can retrotranslocate from the secretory compartments to the cytosol upon cellular stress (PubMed:17451556). Detected in perinuclear foci that may be aggresomes containing misfolded, ubiquitinated proteins (PubMed:20068069). Detected at the mitochondrion membrane upon induction of apoptosis (PubMed:17689225). Under ER stress, a immaturely glycosylated pre-secreted form retrotranslocates from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi network to the cytoplasm to localize in the mitochondria through HSPA5 interaction (PubMed:22689054). ER stress reduces secretion (PubMed:22689054). Under the stress, minor amounts of non-secreted forms accumulate in cytoplasm (PubMed:24073260, PubMed:22689054, PubMed:17451556). Non-secreted forms emerge mainly from failed translocation, alternative splicing or non-canonical initiation start codon (PubMed:24073260, PubMed:12551933).

Proteolytically cleaved on its way through the secretory system, probably within the Golgi lumen (PubMed:2387851). Proteolytic cleavage is not necessary for its chaperone activity (PubMed:25402950). All non-secreted forms are not proteolytically cleaved (PubMed:24073260). Chaperone activity of uncleaved forms is dependent on a non-reducing envoronment (PubMed:25402950).
Polyubiquitinated, leading to proteasomal degradation (PubMed:17451556, PubMed:19137541). Under cellular stress, the intracellular level of cleaved form is reduced due to proteasomal degradation (PubMed:17451556).
Extensively glycosylated with sulfated N-linked carbohydrates (PubMed:17260971, PubMed:2387851). About 30% of the protein mass is comprised of complex N-linked carbohydrate (PubMed:2387851). Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress induces changes in glycosylation status and increases level of hypoglycosylated forms (PubMed:22689054). Core carbohydrates are essential for chaperone activity (PubMed:25402950). Non-secreted forms are hypoglycosylated or unglycosylated (PubMed:24073260).
