CCAR1 Gene Summary [Human]

Enables RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; nuclear receptor coactivator activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in positive regulation of cell migration and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of apoptotic process. Located in nuclear envelope lumen. [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 CCAR1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
