Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SEC61A1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Component of SEC61 channel-forming translocon complex that mediates transport of signal peptide-containing precursor polypeptides across endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Forms a ribosome receptor and a gated pore in the ER membrane, both functions required for cotranslational translocation of signal peptide- containing precursor proteins (PubMed:22375059, PubMed:28782633, PubMed:29719251). May cooperate with auxiliary protein SEC62, SEC63 and HSPA5/BiP to enable post-translational transport of small presecretory proteins (PubMed:22375059, PubMed:29719251). Controls the passive efflux of calcium ions from the ER lumen to the cytosol through SEC61 channel, contributing to the maintenance of cellular calcium homeostasis (PubMed:28782633). Plays a critical role in nephrogenesis, specifically at pronephros stage (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P61620, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22375059, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28782633, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29719251}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Note=Defects in SEC61A1 may be a cause of autosomal dominant hypogammaglobulinemia, resulting in severe recurrent infections, mainly of the respiratory tract. Disease onset is mostly in the first year of life. Affected subjects manifest reduced antibodies production by plasma cells, in the presence of normal subpopulations of B and T cells in the peripheral blood. Patients respond well to immunoglobulin replacement therapy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28782633}.;
