Summary

RHCE (Rh blood group CcEe antigens, HGNC:10008) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p36.11, encoding Blood group Rh(CE) polypeptide (P18577). Component of the ankyrin-1 complex, a multiprotein complex involved in the stability and shape of the erythrocyte membrane.

The Rh blood group system is the second most clinically significant of the blood groups, second only to ABO. It is also the most polymorphic of the blood groups, with variations due to deletions, gene conversions, and missense mutations. The Rh blood group includes this gene which encodes both the RhC and RhE antigens on a single polypeptide and a second gene which encodes the RhD protein. The classification of Rh-positive and Rh-negative individuals is determined by the presence or absence of the highly immunogenic RhD protein on the surface of erythrocytes. A mutation in this gene results in amorph-type Rh-null disease. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms.

Function. Component of the ankyrin-1 complex, a multiprotein complex involved in the stability and shape of the erythrocyte membrane. Mediates the primary membrane attachment site for ANK1 when associated with RHAG. May participate in the ammonium and carbon dioxide transport through the heterotrimer form.

Subunit / interactions. Heterotrimer; a RHCE monomer interacts with a RHAG homodimer. Component of the ankyrin-1 complex in the erythrocyte, composed of ANK1, RHCE, RHAG, SLC4A1, EPB42, GYPA, GYPB and AQP1. Interacts (via the N- and C-terminal) with ANK1 (via ANk 1-5 repeats); mediates the primary membrane attachment site for ANK1.

Subcellular location. Membrane.

Tissue specificity. Restricted to tissues or cell lines expressing erythroid characters. Isoform 4g and isoform RhPI-Alpha are expressed in immature erythroblasts but not in mature erythroblasts.

Disease relevance. Rh-null, amorph type (RHNA) [MIM:617970] An autosomal recessive condition characterized by red blood cells that lack all Rh antigens, have increased osmotic fragility, diminished lifespan, and show changes in morphology resulting in stomatocytosis. Rh-null individuals have mild to moderate hemolytic anemia. They are at risk of having adverse reactions in response to transfusion or pregnancy, because they may produce antibodies against several of the Rh antigens. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Polymorphism. RhCE and RhD are responsible for the RH blood group system. The molecular basis of the E=Rh3/e=Rh5 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 226; Pro-226 corresponds to Rh3 and Ala-226 to Rh5. Variant p.Trp16Cys is associated with altered expression of E antigen. The molecular basis of the C=Rh2/c=Rh4 blood group antigens are variations in position 16, 60, 68 and 103; p.Cys16Trp, p.Ile60Leu, p.Ser68Asn and p.Ser103Pro are found in antigen Rh4.

Similarity. Belongs to the ammonium transporter (TC 2.A.49) family. Rh subfamily.
