Human Gene PDCD6 (uc003jat.1)
  Description: Homo sapiens programmed cell death 6 (PDCD6), transcript variant 1, mRNA.
RefSeq Summary (NM_013232): This gene encodes a calcium-binding protein belonging to the penta-EF-hand protein family. Calcium binding is important for homodimerization and for conformational changes required for binding to other protein partners. This gene product participates in T cell receptor-, Fas-, and glucocorticoid-induced programmed cell death. In mice deficient for this gene product, however, apoptosis was not blocked suggesting this gene product is functionally redundant. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene, and a pseudogene of this gene is also located on the short arm of chromosome 5.

  ID: PDCD6_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Programmed cell death protein 6; AltName: Full=Apoptosis-linked gene 2 protein; AltName: Full=Probable calcium-binding protein ALG-2;
FUNCTION: Calcium-binding protein required for T-cell receptor-, Fas-, and glucocorticoid-induced cell death. May mediate Ca(2+)- regulated signals along the death pathway (By similarity). Calcium-dependent adapter necessary for the association between PDCD6IP and TSG101. Interaction with DAPK1 can accelerate apoptotic cell death by increasing caspase-3 activity.
SUBUNIT: Self-associates (By similarity). Homodimer. Interacts with PEF1. Interacts with RBM22. Interacts with PLSCR4, ANXA7 and TSG101. Interacts with SEC31A, PDCD6IP, and the N-termini of ANXA11 and PLSCR3 in a calcium-dependent manner. Interacts with DAPK1.
INTERACTION: P53355:DAPK1; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-352915, EBI-358616; Q8WUM4:PDCD6IP; NbExp=5; IntAct=EBI-352915, EBI-310624; Q9NRY6:PLSCR3; NbExp=9; IntAct=EBI-352915, EBI-750734; O94979:SEC31A; NbExp=6; IntAct=EBI-352915, EBI-1767898;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Nucleus. Note=Interaction with RBM22 induces relocalization from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. Translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus after heat shock cell treatment. Accumulates in cytoplasmic vesicle-like organelles after heat shock treatment, which may represent stress granules.
SIMILARITY: Contains 5 EF-hand domains.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
