Progesterone receptor membrane component 1 (abbreviated PGRMC1) is a protein which co-purifies with progesterone binding proteins in the liver and ovary.[3][4] In humans, the PGRMC1 protein is encoded by the PGRMC1 gene.[5] The Sigma-2 receptor was recently identified as a protein that binds the PGRMC1 protein.[6]

The sole biochemical function of PGRMC1 is heme-binding.[7][8] PGRMC1 shares key structural motifs with cytochrome b5.[9] PGRMC1 binds and activates P450 proteins,[10][11][12] which are important in drug, hormone and lipid metabolism. PGRMC1 also binds to PAIR-BP1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor RNA-binding protein-1).[4] However, its expression outside of the reproductive tract and in males suggests multiple functions for the protein. These may include binding to Insig (insulin-induced gene),[13] which regulates cholesterol synthesis.[14]

Expression

PGRMC1 is highly expressed in the liver and kidney in humans[5] with lower expression in the brain, lung, heart, skeletal muscle and pancreas.[5][15][16] In rodents, PGRMC1 is found in the liver, lung, kidney and brain.[15][16] PGRMC1 is over-expressed in breast tumors and in cancer cell lines from the colon, thyroid, ovary, lung, and cervix.[17][18] Microarray analyses have detected PGRMC1 expression in colon, lung and breast tumors.[19][20][21]

PGRMC1 expression is induced by the non-genotoxic carcinogen 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin in the rat liver,[16] but this induction is specific to males.[22] PGRMC1 is expressed in the ovary and corpus luteum, where its expression is induced by progesterone[23] and during pregnancy,[24] respectively. PGRMC1/25-Dx is expressed in various regions of the brain [hypothalamic area, circumventricular organs, ependymal cells of the lateral ventricles, meninges,[15][25] including regions known to facilitate lordosis.[15]

Binding to heme and cytochrome P450s

The PGRMC1 yeast homologue, Dap1 (damage associated protein 1), binds heme[8][26] through a penta-coordinate mechanism.[8][27] Yeast cells lacking the DAP1 gene are sensitive to DNA damage,[28] and heme-binding is essential for damage resistance.[26] Dap1 is also required for a critical step in cholesterol synthesis in which the P450 protein Erg11/Cyp51 removes a methyl group from lanosterol.[10][26][28][29] Erg11/Cyp51 is the target of the azole antifungal drugs. As a result, yeast cells lacking the DAP1 gene are highly sensitive to antifungal drugs[10][26][28] This function is conserved between the unrelated fungi S. cerevisiae and S. pombe. Dap1 also regulates the metabolism of iron in yeast.[29]

In yeast and humans, PGRMC1 binds directly to P450 proteins, including CYP51A1, CYP3A4, CYP7A1 and CYP21A2.[10] PGRMC1 also activates Cyp21 when the two proteins are co-expressed,[11][12] indicating that PGRMC1 promotes progesterone turnover. Just as Dap1 is required for the action of Erg11 in the synthesis of ergosterol in yeast, PGRMC1 regulates the Cyp51-catalyzed demethylation step in human cholesterol synthesis.[10] Thus, PGRMC1 and its homologues bind and regulate P450 proteins, and it has been likened to “a helping hand for P450 proteins”.[30]

Roles in signaling and apoptosis

The yeast PGRMC1 homologue is required for resistance to damage.[28] PGRMC1 also promotes survival in human cancer cells after treatment with chemotherapy.[4][7] In contrast, PGRMC1 promotes cell death in cancer cells after oxidative damage.[31] PGRMC1 alters several known survival signaling proteins, including the Akt protein kinase and the cell death-associated protein IκB.[31] Progesterone inhibits apoptosis in immortalized granulosa cells, and this activity requires PGRMC1 and its binding partner, PAIR-BP1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor RNA-binding protein-1).[4] However, PAIR-BP1 is not a progesterone binding protein, and the component of the PGRMC1 complex that binds to progesterone is unknown.
