Summary

SELENON (selenoprotein N, HGNC:15999) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p36.11, encoding Selenoprotein N (Q9NZV5). Plays an important role in cell protection against oxidative stress and in the regulation of redox-related calcium homeostasis.

This gene encodes a glycoprotein that is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. It plays an important role in cell protection against oxidative stress, and in the regulation of redox-related calcium homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with early onset muscle disorders, referred to as SEPN1-related myopathy. SEPN1-related myopathy consists of 4 autosomal recessive disorders, originally thought to be separate entities: rigid spine muscular dystrophy (RSMD1), the classical form of multiminicore disease, desmin related myopathy with Mallory-body like inclusions, and congenital fiber-type disproportion (CFTD). This protein is a selenoprotein, containing the rare amino acid selenocysteine (Sec). Sec is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3’ UTRs of selenoprotein mRNAs contain a conserved stem-loop structure, designated the Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element, that is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon, rather than as a stop signal. A second stop-codon redefinition element (SRE) adjacent to the UGA codon has been identified in this gene (PMID:15791204). SRE is a phylogenetically conserved stem-loop structure that stimulates readthrough at the UGA codon, and augments the Sec insertion efficiency by SECIS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Function. Plays an important role in cell protection against oxidative stress and in the regulation of redox-related calcium homeostasis. Regulates the calcium level of the ER by protecting the calcium pump ATP2A2 against the oxidoreductase ERO1A-mediated oxidative damage. Within the ER, ERO1A activity increases the concentration of H(2)O(2), which attacks the luminal thiols in ATP2A2 and thus leads to cysteinyl sulfenic acid formation (-SOH) and SEPN1 reduces the SOH back to free thiol (-SH), thus restoring ATP2A2 activity. Acts as a modulator of ryanodine receptor (RyR) activity: protects RyR from oxidation due to increased oxidative stress, or directly controls the RyR redox state, regulating the RyR-mediated calcium mobilization required for normal muscle development and differentiation. Essential for muscle regeneration and satellite cell maintenance in skeletal muscle.

Subunit / interactions. Interacts with RYR1, RYR2 and RYR3.

Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane.

Tissue specificity. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in skeletal muscle, brain, lung and placenta. Isoform 2 is also expressed in heart, diaphragm and stomach.

Post-translational modifications. N-glycosylated.

Disease relevance. Congenital myopathy 3 with rigid spine (CMYO3) [MIM:602771] An autosomal recessive, slowly progressive muscular disorder apparent from birth or early childhood and characterized by hypotonia, proximal muscle weakness, poor axial muscle strength, scoliosis and neck weakness, and a variable degree of spinal rigidity. Most patients remain ambulatory. Early ventilatory insufficiency may lead to death by respiratory failure. Additional features may include facial muscle weakness, amyotrophy, joint contractures, distal hyperlaxity, pulmonary hypertension with secondary cardiac dysfunction, and insulin resistance in patients with a low BMI. Skeletal muscle biopsy typically shows multiminicores and other abnormal non-specific myopathic findings. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Domain organisation. The N-terminus (first 61 amino acids) contains an endoplasmic reticulum addressing and retention targeting signal.

Miscellaneous. The UGA codons present in position 127 and 462 are either a selenocysteine or a real stop codon. The UGA codon present in position 428 is either a selenocysteine or a real stop codon.
