Thyroid cancer protein 1 Thyroid cancer protein 1 (TC1) is thought to decrease in apoptosis and increase cell proliferation. It is found to be expressed in thyroid papillary carcinoma. This suggests its importance in thyroid cancer. The molecular mechanism of TC1, involves up-regulating cell signalling through ERK-1/2 signalling pathway and it positively regulates transition between the G1 and S phase in the cell cycle. It is thought to positively regulate Wnt/beta-catenin signalling pathway by interacting with its repressor. In humans, it is located in the chromosomal position, C8orf4. This family of proteins is found in eukaryotes and contains a conserved NIF sequence motif.
