Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo
Also known as: DRC1; PDRC1; SEP53; C1orf10
Summary: This gene encodes a member of the "fused gene" family of proteins, which contain N-terminus EF-hand domains and multiple tandem peptide repeats. The encoded protein contains two EF-hand Ca2+ binding domains in its N-terminus and two glutamine- and threonine-rich 60 amino acid repeats in its C-terminus. This gene, also known as squamous epithelial heat shock protein 53, may play a role in the mucosal/epithelial immune response and epidermal differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]

Identification of Down-Expressed CRNN Associated with Cancer Progression and Poor Prognosis in Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.
Title: Identification of Down-Expressed CRNN Associated with Cancer Progression and Poor Prognosis in Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.
knockdown of CRNN by small interfering RNA suppressed G1/S transition and attenuated the M5-induced proliferation. In addition, CRNN overexpression increased the phosphorylation and activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase and Akt. Inactivation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase and Akt pathways using small interfering RNA or selective inhibitors (LY294002 and MK2206) reduced the proliferative effects of CRNN

This study showed a significant correlation between LOH/MSI at 1q21.3 with clinical outcomes and that downregulation of CRNN gene could be considered as a prognostic marker of OSCC.

The single-nucleotide polymorphisms of CRNN (rs941934) and RPTN (rs3001978, rs28441202) may contribute to Atopic Dermatitis development, but further studies on a larger group of Atopic Dermatitis patients are needed to verify this assumption.

Loss of CRNN expression correlated with advanced tumor length, greater tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, and poor survival in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Findings demonstrate that CRNN is a tumor suppressor gene that plays a critical tumor suppressive role in ESCC.

cornulin is an important molecule in normal esophageal pathology and is likely lost during the conversion of normal to neoplastic epithelium

Negative regulation of SIRT1 by DBC1 may retard tumorigenesis in breast tissue, so the correlation between SIRT1 and DBC1 is a potential prognostic indicator in breast cancer.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
