TOR1B May serve as a molecular chaperone assisting in the proper folding of secreted and/or membrane proteins. Plays a role in non-neural cells nuclear envelope and endoplasmic reticulum integrity. May have a redundant function with TOR1A in non-neural tissues. Belongs to the ClpA/ClpB family. Torsin subfamily. Widely expressed with low levels in brain. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
