Cdkn1c Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable protein kinase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cyclin-dependent protein kinase activity; positive regulation of transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic placenta morphogenesis; regulation of gene expression; and uterus development. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Used to study lung cancer. Biomarker of lung cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome; IMAGe syndrome; and hyperinsulinism. Orthologous to human CDKN1C (cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1C).
