Ccdc8 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to be involved in microtubule cytoskeleton organization and regulation of mitotic nuclear division. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including centrosome; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of 3M complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 3-M syndrome. Orthologous to human CCDC8 (coiled-coil domain containing 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 mouse Ccdc8 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
