CDKN2AIP Gene Summary [Human]
The protein encoded by this gene regulates the DNA damage response through several different signaling pathways. One such pathway is the p53-HDM2-p21(WAF1) pathway, which is critical to the DNA damage response. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

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 CDKN2AIP often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
