Description
CHMP1B encodes a component of the ESCRT-III (Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport III) complex, which is essential for multivesicular body (MVB) biogenesis, cytokinesis, and autophagic clearance. The protein localizes to the midbody during cell division and is involved in membrane scission events. Mutations in CHMP1B have been linked to neurodegenerative disorders and cancer.

Mutations & Variants
Hotspot Mutations
| Variant | Type | Frequency | Functional Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| c.226C>T (p.Arg76Trp) | Missense | Rare | Impaired ESCRT-III assembly and autophagic flux |
| c.334G>A (p.Gly112Arg) | Missense | Rare | Reduced protein stability and midbody localization |
| c.1A>G (p.Met1Val) | Start loss | Very rare | Complete loss of protein expression |
Mutation functional classification
Loss of Function (LOF)
Missense and start-loss mutations that reduce protein stability or disrupt ESCRT-III complex formation lead to loss of function.
Gain of Function (GOF)
No evidence of gain-of-function mutations in CHMP1B.
Dominant Negative (DN)
Some missense variants may exert dominant-negative effects by incorporating into ESCRT-III filaments and impairing normal complex dynamics.

Protein Summary
CHMP1B is a 196-amino-acid protein (UniProt Q7LBR1) that forms part of the ESCRT-III complex. It contains a coiled-coil domain and a C-terminal basic region that mediates membrane binding. The protein is ubiquitously expressed but enriched in brain and testis. It plays a critical role in membrane remodeling during cytokinesis and autophagic clearance of protein aggregates.
