SEC63
protein-codingSEC63 homolog, protein translocation regulator, the group of DNAJ (HSP40) heat shock proteins
Gene summary
The Sec61 complex is the central component of the protein translocation apparatus of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. The protein encoded by this gene and SEC62 protein are found to be associated with ribosome-free SEC61 complex. It is speculated that Sec61-Sec62-Sec63 may perform post-translational protein translocation into the ER. The Sec61-Sec62-Sec63 complex might also perform the backward transport of ER proteins that are subject to the ubiquitin-proteasome-dependent degradation pathway. The encoded protein is an integral membrane protein located in the rough ER. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

SEC63 was FIRST reported in relation to autosomal dominant polycystic liver disease (ADPLD) in 2004 (Davila et al., PMID 15133510). ADPLD due to SEC63 mutations (ADPLD-SEC63) is diagnosed in adults with a family history of liver cysts, under age 40 with any number of liver cysts and individuals over the age of 40 with four or more liver cysts. Women are associated with more severe course of disease, and kidney cysts are present in approximately 28-35% of cases, but in these cases the kidney disease is mild with no association with progression to end stage renal disease (PMID 20408995). At least twenty unique variants (e.g. nonsense, frameshift, splice site, missense) have been reported in humans. Evidence supporting this gene-disease relationship includes case-level data, segregation data, population data and experimental data. Summary of Case Level Data: 12 POINTS. Variants in this gene have been reported in at least 19 probands and in at least four publications (PMID 15133510, PMID 16835903, PMID 20095989, PMID 28375157). Variants in this gene segregated with disease in at least 24 additional family members. More evidence is available in the literature, but the maximum score for genetic evidence (12 pts.) has been reached. The mechanism for disease is heterozygous loss of function (PMID 15133510, PMID 20095989), with experimental evidence suggesting endoplasmic reticulum stress with induction of the unfolded protein response (UPR) and association with aberrant polycystin 1 (PC1) post-translational modifications leading to cystogenesis (PMID 22864019, PMID 25844898). This gene-disease association is supported by expression studies in cell models, zebrafish models, and mouse models (PMID 21685914, PMID 22864019, PMID 25844898). In summary, SEC63 is definitively associated with AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT POLYCYSTIC LIVER DISEASE. This has been repeatedly demonstrated in both the research and clinical diagnostic settings, and has been upheld over time. This classification was approved by the ClinGen Cystic and Ciliopathy Disorders GCEP on 09/23/2020 (SOP Version 7).

Manifestation: Gastrointestinal
Intervention: General
Rationale: Genetic knowledge may be beneficial related to issues such as selection of optimal supportive care, informed medical decision-making, prognostic considerations, and avoidance of unnecessary testing
Comments: Though some individuals may require treatment, it is unclear if early (genetic) diagnosis would be beneficial; Liver transplantion has been described

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type
Statistics based on transcript NM_007214.5. Only rare variants are included.
We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.
Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

- Function
- FUNCTION: Mediates cotranslational and post-translational transport of certain precursor polypeptides across endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (PubMed:22375059, PubMed:29719251). Proposed to play an auxiliary role in recognition of precursors with short and apolar signal peptides. May cooperate with SEC62 and HSPA5/BiP to facilitate targeting of small presecretory proteins into the SEC61 channel-forming translocon complex, triggering channel opening for polypeptide translocation to the ER lumen (PubMed:29719251). Required for efficient PKD1/Polycystin-1 biogenesis and trafficking to the plasma membrane of the primary cilia (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VHE0, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22375059, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29719251}.;
