CCDC88C

Description

The CCDC88C gene, located on chromosome 19, encodes a protein of unknown function. However, it is believed to play a role in a variety of cellular processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and migration. The protein is expressed in a wide range of tissues, including the brain, heart, and lungs. Research suggests that CCDC88C may be involved in the development of several diseases, including cancer and neurodevelopmental disorders.

Associated Diseases

• Cancer (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma)
• Neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., autism spectrum disorder)
• Cardiovascular disease
