CCT6P1
Description
The CCT6P1 (chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 6 pseudogene 1) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 7.
CCT6P1 is a gene that encodes a protein involved in the proper folding of newly synthesized proteins. It is a subunit of the chaperonin containing TCP1 (CCT) complex, also known as the cytosolic chaperonin. The CCT complex helps to fold proteins correctly and ensure their proper function. Mutations in CCT6P1 may be associated with various cellular defects and diseases.
CCT6P1 is a component of the chaperonin containing TCP1 (CCT) complex, also known as the cytosolic chaperonin. This complex assists in the proper folding of newly synthesized proteins, particularly those that are critical for cellular function. CCT6P1, along with other CCT subunits, forms a barrel-shaped structure that encapsulates and refolds misfolded proteins. This process is essential for maintaining protein homeostasis and ensuring the correct function of numerous cellular processes.
CCT6P1 is also known as CCT6-5P, CCT6AP1.
