This family corresponds to the GET complex subunit GET2. The GET complex is involved in the retrieval of ER resident proteins from the Golgi [1]. It forms a complex with GET1 and constitutes the ER membrane receptor for GET3 [2]. It facilitates the release of tail- anchored (TA) proteins from GET3 and mediates the subsequent entry into the ER membrane [2].
