Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.412C>T (p.Arg138Ter) Nonsense 0.01% (gnomAD) Loss of function, likely protein truncation.
c.755A>G (p.Glu252Gly) Missense 0.05% (gnomAD) Potential impact on protein interaction.
c.1021_1022insA (p.Thr341AsnfsTer5) Frameshift 0.02% (COSMIC) Loss of function in cancer samples.
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense and frameshift mutations lead to truncated or absent protein, impairing PSME3 interaction and proteasome regulation.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No evidence for gain-of-function mutations; missense variants may alter binding affinity but not clearly activating.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Not established; no dominant-negative effects reported.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• protein binding • proteasome activator activity
• proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process • cell cycle
• DNA damage response

Pathways

Proteasome degradation pathway
Cell cycle regulation

Protein Summary

PSME3IP1 is a 341-amino acid protein that interacts with PSME3 (PA28γ), a nuclear proteasome activator. It may modulate proteasome activity in the nucleus, influencing cell cycle progression and response to DNA damage. The protein is localized to the nucleus and is expressed in multiple tissues, with highest levels in testis.
