Facts about DnaJ homolog subfamily B member 9.
In the unstressed endoplasmic reticulum, interacts with the luminal area of ERN1/IRE1 and recruits HSPA5/BiP: HSPA5/BiP disrupts the dimerization of the active ERN1/IRE1 luminal area, thereby inactivating ERN1/IRE1 (By similarity). Also involved in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) of misfolded proteins.
