Description

CCDC47 (Coiled-Coil Domain Containing 47) encodes a protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. It is involved in calcium homeostasis, ER stress response, and protein quality control. Mutations in CCDC47 are associated with autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder 64 (MRT64) and have been implicated in cancer progression.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Intellectual developmental disorder 64 (MRT64) Loss-of-function mutations impair ER calcium homeostasis and stress response, leading to neurodevelopmental defects. OMIM #618260; PMID: 31630790
Hepatocellular carcinoma Overexpression of CCDC47 promotes cell proliferation and metastasis via ER stress pathway modulation. PMID: 31209404
Breast cancer CCDC47 upregulation correlates with poor prognosis and may influence calcium signaling. PMID: 32989245

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.334C>T (p.Arg112*) Nonsense Rare Loss of function; associated with MRT64
c.512G>A (p.Arg171Gln) Missense Rare Impaired ER calcium binding; pathogenic in MRT64
c.788A>G (p.Asn263Ser) Missense Unknown Potential gain-of-function in cancer
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense and missense mutations (e.g., p.Arg112*, p.Arg171Gln) reduce protein stability or calcium-binding capacity, leading to ER stress dysregulation and neurodevelopmental disorders.

Gain of Function (GOF)

Overexpression or specific missense variants (e.g., p.Asn263Ser) may enhance cell proliferation and metastasis in cancers.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Not reported for CCDC47.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• endoplasmic reticulum membrane • calcium ion binding
• protein homodimerization activity • response to endoplasmic reticulum stress
• negative regulation of apoptotic process

Pathways

• Unfolded Protein Response (UPR)
• Calcium signaling pathway

Protein Summary

CCDC47 is a 483-amino acid protein with a coiled-coil domain and a transmembrane region, anchored in the ER membrane. It binds calcium ions via its EF-hand-like motif and interacts with other ER-resident proteins to maintain calcium homeostasis and mitigate ER stress. The protein is ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in testis and liver.
