Q9UM00

Target Species

Human

Target Name

TMCO1

Target Full Name

Calcium load-activated calcium channel

Target Function

Calcium-selective channel required to prevent calcium stores from overfilling, thereby playing a key role in calcium homeostasis. In response to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) overloading, assembles into a homotetramer, forming a functional calcium-selective channel, regulating the calcium content in endoplasmic reticulum store. Component of a ribosome-associated ER translocon complex involved in multi-pass membrane protein transport into the ER membrane and biogenesis. Together with SEC61 and TMEM147, forms the lipid-filled cavity at the center of the translocon where TMEM147 may insert hydrophobic segments of mutli-pass membrane proteins from the lumen into de central membrane cavity in a process gated by SEC61, and TMCO1 may insert hydrophobic segments of nascent chains from the cytosol into the cavity.

Target Involvement

Craniofacial dysmorphism, skeletal anomalies and mental retardation syndrome (CFSMR); Glaucoma, primary open angle (POAG)

Target Subcellular Location

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Target Protein Families

TMCO1 family

Target Tissue Specificity

Widely expressed in adult and fetal tissues, with higher levels in thymus, prostate, testis and small intestine and lower levels in brain, placenta, lung and kidney. Present in most tissues in the eye, including the trabecular meshwork and retina (at prot
