Functions by blocking the processing of sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs). Capable of retaining the SCAP-SREBF2 complex in the ER thus preventing it from escorting SREBPs to the Golgi. Seems to regulate the ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation of HMGCR. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12242332, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16606821}. |INSIG| |SREBP-SCAP-Insig complex| |SREBP signaling pathway| |cellular response to sterol depletion| |cranial suture morphogenesis| |response to sterol depletion| |negative regulation of fatty acid biosynthetic process| |craniofacial suture morphogenesis| |middle ear morphogenesis| |negative regulation of steroid biosynthetic process| |negative regulation of steroid metabolic process| |negative regulation of fatty acid metabolic process| |ER-nucleus signaling pathway| |cholesterol biosynthetic process| |secondary alcohol biosynthetic process| |regulation of fatty acid biosynthetic process| |sterol biosynthetic process| |negative regulation of lipid biosynthetic process| |cranial skeletal system development| |triglyceride metabolic process| |negative regulation of lipid metabolic process| |response to fatty acid| |regulation of fatty acid metabolic process| |regulation of steroid biosynthetic process| |roof of mouth development| |negative regulation of small molecule metabolic process| |inner ear morphogenesis| |acylglycerol metabolic process| |neutral lipid metabolic process| |alcohol biosynthetic process| |bone morphogenesis| |regulation of steroid metabolic process| |cholesterol metabolic process| |ear morphogenesis| |steroid biosynthetic process| |secondary alcohol metabolic process| |sterol metabolic process| |regulation of cellular ketone metabolic process| |organic hydroxy compound biosynthetic process| |regulation of lipid biosynthetic process| |inner ear development| |bone development| |ear development| |response to insulin| |skeletal system morphogenesis| |sensory organ morphogenesis| |steroid metabolic process| |embryonic organ morphogenesis| |alcohol metabolic process| |transcription factor binding| |response to acid chemical| |glycerolipid metabolic process| |response to peptide hormone| |regulation of lipid metabolic process| |regulation of small molecule metabolic process| |embryonic organ development| |organic hydroxy compound metabolic process| |response to peptide| |skeletal system development| |sensory organ development| |embryonic morphogenesis| |lipid biosynthetic process| |small molecule biosynthetic process| |response to lipid| |response to hormone| |endoplasmic reticulum membrane| |animal organ morphogenesis| |cellular lipid metabolic process| |embryo development| |response to organonitrogen compound| |response to nitrogen compound| |lipid metabolic process| |positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II| |organic cyclic compound biosynthetic process| |response to endogenous stimulus| |negative regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |negative regulation of biosynthetic process| |response to oxygen-containing compound| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |cellular response to stress| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |small molecule metabolic process| |positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found. ^Gene^Correlation^ |[[:human genes:h:hgc6.3|HGC6.3]]|0.541| Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 1/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|1/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **Essentiality Rank**: 17692 * **Expression level (log2 read counts)**: 4.05 {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}}
