Description

GRAMD1A encodes a protein containing a GRAM domain, which is involved in lipid binding and membrane dynamics. The protein is implicated in sterol transport and cholesterol homeostasis, particularly in the endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane contact sites. It is widely expressed in various tissues and may play a role in cellular lipid metabolism.

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.1234C>T (p.Arg412Trp) missense 0.001% (gnomAD) Unknown functional effect

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Frameshift mutations (e.g., p.Glu189fs) are predicted to cause loss of function via nonsense-mediated decay or truncated protein.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Pathways

Sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) signaling
Cholesterol metabolism

Protein Summary

The GRAMD1A protein (UniProt Q96CP6) is a 738-amino acid protein with a GRAM domain that binds phospholipids and mediates sterol transport at membrane contact sites. It localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane, facilitating cholesterol transfer. The protein is expressed in multiple tissues, with highest levels in liver and adipose tissue.
