Ccdc88c Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including G-protein alpha-subunit binding activity; PDZ domain binding activity; and dynein light intermediate chain binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including apical constriction; negative regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; and protein destabilization. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a positive effect on positive regulation of JNK cascade. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including mucociliary clearance; negative regulation of microtubule depolymerization; and respiratory basal cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in cell junction. Predicted to be active in apical junction complex; centrosome; and cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hydrocephalus and spinocerebellar ataxia type 40. Orthologous to human CCDC88C (coiled-coil domain containing 88C).

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 rat Ccdc88c often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
