CROCC Gene Summary [Human]

Predicted to enable kinesin binding activity and structural molecule activity. Involved in several processes, including centriole-centriole cohesion; positive regulation of cilium assembly; and positive regulation of protein localization to cilium. Located in cytoskeleton; cytosol; and plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human CROCC often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
