Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

PDIA3 (ERp57/GRP58) is a thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase of the protein disulfide isomerase family that operates across multiple cellular compartments to catalyze oxidative folding, regulate redox-dependent signaling, and modulate immune recognition. In the ER, PDIA3 associates with calnexin and calreticulin via its b' domain to catalyze disulfide bond formation in glycoprotein substrates including influenza hemagglutinin and the prion protein, and forms a disulfide-linked heterodimer with tapasin that stabilizes the MHC class I peptide-loading complex and enables peptide proofreading, as resolved by a 2.7 Å crystal structure (PMID:9153243, PMID:14732712, PMID:17459881, PMID:36104323, PMID:26170458). At the plasma membrane, PDIA3 localizes to caveolae where it functions as a 1α,25(OH)₂D₃ receptor that activates PLA2/PKC signaling interdependently with VDR, mediates platelet aggregation and fibrin deposition through its isomerase activity, oxidatively inactivates extracellular transglutaminase 2, and co-translocates with calreticulin during immunogenic cell death to promote anti-tumor immunity (PMID:20843786, PMID:23896121, PMID:22207737, PMID:25156521, PMID:29305423, PMID:18464797). PDIA3 also participates in nuclear functions including redox-dependent DNA binding via its oxidized a' domain homodimer, regulation of STAT3 phosphorylation and STAT3-dependent transcription, and γ-H2AX-mediated DNA damage signaling (PMID:17283067, PMID:19995546, PMID:19372559).
