The SEC61G protein often called Sec61 gamma is a component of the Sec61 translocon complex. It has a molecular mass of approximately 7 kDa. The protein is integral to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and is present in various tissues. SEC61G plays a role in the co-translational translocation of polypeptides across the ER membrane by forming a channel.
Biological function summary
The SEC61G protein operates as part of the Sec61 complex which includes Sec61 alpha and beta subunits. This complex is essential for protein translocation in the ER. The complex not only facilitates the entry of nascent polypeptides into the ER but also aids in the integration of membrane proteins. This process is important for protein turnover and cellular homeostasis.
Pathways
SEC61G takes part in the protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum and the unfolded protein response pathways. The Sec61 complex works in conjunction with the signal recognition particle and docking protein to efficiently translocate proteins. Moreover SEC61G interacts with proteins like BiP and calnexin during protein folding and quality control within the ER.
SEC61G has connections to conditions such as cystic fibrosis and pancreatic cancer. Mutations or malfunctions in the Sec61 translocon can disrupt protein translocation leading to misfolded proteins and stress on the ER. Affected pathways may influence the disease progression in conjunction with other proteins like cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in cystic fibrosis and KRAS in pancreatic cancer.
