Summary

SERPINA6 (serpin family A member 6, HGNC:1540) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 14q32.13, encoding Corticosteroid-binding globulin (P08185). Major transport protein for glucocorticoids and progestins in the blood of almost all vertebrate species.

This gene encodes an alpha-globulin protein with corticosteroid-binding properties. This is the major transport protein for glucorticoids and progestins in the blood of most vertebrates. The gene localizes to a chromosomal region containing several closely related serine protease inhibitors which may have evolved by duplication events.

  • Data show thatin chronic hepatitis C patients, IL28B polymorphism was associated with serum levels of corticosteroid binding globulin, a major transporter of cortisol. (PMID:21750736)

  • Atomic interactions observed between progesterone and CBG explain the lower affinity of progesterone in comparison to corticosteroids. (PMID:23300763)

Genomic neighbors (locus context)

Genes flanking this one on the chromosome (NCBI/Entrez gene neighborhood). Positional context only — some neighbors share regulatory elements (bidirectional promoters, antisense/overlapping transcripts), but chromosomal adjacency is not itself a functional relationship (see Interactions for that).

Protein

Protein identifiers

Corticosteroid-binding globulin — P08185 (reviewed: P08185)

Alternative names: Serpin A6, Transcortin

All UniProt accessions (3): P08185, G3V350, G3V4V7

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →

Function. Major transport protein for glucocorticoids and progestins in the blood of almost all vertebrate species.

Subcellular location. Secreted.

Tissue specificity. Plasma; synthesized in liver. Has also been identified in a number of glycocorticoid responsive cells.

Post-translational modifications. N-glycosylated; binds 5 oligosaccharide chains. Glycosylation in position Asn-260 is needed for steroid binding.

Disease relevance. Corticosteroid-binding globulin deficiency (CBG deficiency) [MIM:611489] Extremely rare hereditary disorder characterized by reduced corticosteroid-binding capacity with normal or low plasma corticosteroid-binding globulin concentration, and normal or low basal cortisol levels associated with hypo/hypertension and muscle fatigue. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Domain organisation. Proteolytic cleavage leads to an important conformation change. This reduces the affinity for steroids.

Similarity. Belongs to the serpin family.
