| UniProt Protein Function: | SEC63: Required for integral membrane and secreted preprotein translocation across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Defects in SEC63 are a cause of polycystic liver disease (PCLD). PCLD is an autosomal dominant disorder and is characterized by the presence of multiple liver cysts of biliary epithelial origin. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Endoplasmic reticulum; Membrane protein, multi-pass Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6q21 Cellular Component: cytosol; endoplasmic reticulum; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; membrane Molecular Function: protein binding; receptor activity Biological Process: posttranslational protein targeting to membrane; protein targeting to membrane; SRP-dependent cotranslational protein targeting to membrane Disease: Polycystic Liver Disease |

| NCBI 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] |
