SEM1 (26S proteasome complex subunit SEM1) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Multiple myeloma, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Mantle cell lymphoma.
Component of the 26S proteasome, a multiprotein complex involved in the ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated proteins. This complex plays a key role in the maintenance of protein homeostasis by removing misfolded or damaged proteins, which could impair cellular functions, and by removing proteins whose functions are no longer required. Therefore, the proteasome participates in numerous cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, apoptosis, or DNA damage repair.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.75 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.86, affected pathway 0.87, genetic association 0.05, clinical 0.99).

No product in this corpus aims at SEM1 yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Broadly expressed or essential: HPA lists SEM1 among essential proteins and finds the RNA at low tissue specificity; a medicine acting on the wild-type protein would expose normal tissue too. HPA SEM1: RNA low tissue specificity; no normal tissue stained high; highest cancer staining renal cancer (3 of 12 high). Distribution: 2 cancer families in the corpus carry a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Multiple myeloma, Lymphoma); Open Targets associates it with 2 specific cancer types at or above 0.5 (plasma cell myeloma, mantle cell lymphoma). (Rule 7 of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts.)

Component of the 26S proteasome, a multiprotein complex involved in the ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated proteins. This complex plays a key role in the maintenance of protein homeostasis by removing misfolded or damaged proteins, which could impair cellular functions, and by removing proteins whose functions are no longer required. Therefore, the proteasome participates in numerous cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, apoptosis, or DNA damage repair. Component of the TREX-2 complex (transcription and export complex 2), composed of at least ENY2, GANP, PCID2, SEM1, and either centrin CETN2 or CETN3. The TREX-2 complex functions in docking export-competent ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs) to the nuclear entrance of the nuclear pore complex (nuclear basket). TREX-2 participates in mRNA export and accurate chromatin positioning in the nucleus by tethering genes to the nuclear periphery. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 7q21.3 (HGNC).
RNA: low tissue specificity, detected in all normal tissues.
No normal tissue stained high.
Medium only: cervical cancer, glioma, head and neck cancer, lymphoma.
