Signal peptidase complex subunit 1 (SPCS1)

The protein contains 102 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 11805 Da.

 

Component of the microsomal signal peptidase complex which removes signal peptides from nascent proteins as they are translocated into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum.', '(Microbial infection) Required for the post-translational processing of proteins involved in virion assembly and secretion from flaviviruses such as West Nile virus (WNV), Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), Dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2), Yellow Fever virus (YFV), Zika virus (ZIKV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) (PubMed:24009510, PubMed:27383988, PubMed:29593046). Plays a key role in the post-translational processing of flaviviral structural proteins prM, E, and NS1 (PubMed:27383988, PubMed:29593046). In HCV, it is involved in virion assembly where it promotes the interaction between HCV virus proteins NS2 and E2 (PubMed:24009510). (updated: Oct. 16, 2019)

Signal peptidase complex, subunit 1, s. cerevisiae, homolog of; spcs1
Signal peptidase, 12-kd subunit; spc12

CLONING

By RT-PCR of a human fetal brain cDNA library using degenerate oligonucleotides based on canine Spcs1, Kailes and Hartmann (1996) cloned human SPCS1. The 102-amino acid protein has a predicted molecular mass of 11.8 kD. SPCS1 shows no sequence similarity to any of the other signal peptidase complex subunits. SPCS1 contains 2 predicted transmembrane domains, and immunoblot analysis of protease-digested canine microsomes showed that both the N- and C-terminal domains of Spcs1 and Spcs2 are cytoplasmic.

MAPPING

The International Radiation Hybrid Mapping Consortium mapped the SPCS1 gene to chromosome 3 (TMAP RH102956). ... More on the omim web site
