CCDC142
Description
The CCDC142 (coiled-coil domain containing 142) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 2.
The CCDC142 gene, located on chromosome 2, encodes for the CCDC142 protein. This gene spans 4339 base pairs and has 9 exons. The protein's function is not fully understood, but it contains a coiled-coil domain and a RINT1_TIP1 motif within this domain. CCDC142 proteins move between the cytosol and nucleus, suggesting potential roles in cell signaling or other cellular processes. Homologous genes exist in many animals, including vertebrates and invertebrates, but not in other life forms like fungi, plants, or bacteria.
The exact function of CCDC142 is not fully understood. However, its structure suggests potential roles in protein interactions and cellular transport, with evidence suggesting movement between the cytosol and nucleus. The protein contains a coiled-coil domain, likely involved in protein-protein interactions, and a RINT1_TIP1 motif within this domain.
CCDC142 is also known as -.
