Summary
MCFD2 (multiple coagulation factor deficiency 2, ER cargo receptor complex subunit, HGNC:18451) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2p21, encoding Multiple coagulation factor deficiency protein 2 (Q8NI22). The MCFD2-LMAN1 complex forms a specific cargo receptor for the ER-to-Golgi transport of selected proteins.
This gene encodes a soluble luminal protein with two calmodulin-like EF-hand motifs at its C-terminus. This protein forms a complex with LMAN1 (lectin mannose binding protein 1; also known as ERGIC-53) that facilitates the transport of coagulation factors V (FV) and VIII (FVIII) from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus via an endoplasmic reticulum Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC). Mutations in this gene cause combined deficiency of FV and FVIII (F5F8D); a rare autosomal recessive bleeding disorder characterized by mild to moderate bleeding and coordinate reduction in plasma FV and FVIII levels. This protein has also been shown to maintain stem cell potential in adult central nervous system and is a marker for testicular germ cell tumors. The 3’ UTR of this gene contains a transposon-like human repeat element named ‘THE 1’. A processed RNA pseudogene of this gene is on chromosome 6p22.1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Function. The MCFD2-LMAN1 complex forms a specific cargo receptor for the ER-to-Golgi transport of selected proteins. Plays a role in the secretion of coagulation factors.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts in a calcium-dependent manner with LMAN1.
Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment. Endoplasmic reticulum. Golgi apparatus.
Disease relevance. Factor V and factor VIII combined deficiency 2 (F5F8D2) [MIM:613625] A blood coagulation disorder characterized by bleeding symptoms similar to those in hemophilia or parahemophilia, that are caused by single deficiency of FV or FVIII, respectively. The most common symptoms are epistaxis, menorrhagia, and excessive bleeding during or after trauma. Plasma levels of coagulation factors V and VIII are in the range of 5 to 30% of normal. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. Essentially unstructured in the absence of calcium ions. Requires calcium ions for folding.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 34 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
