CCHCR1 coiled-coil alpha-helical rod protein 1

Gene ID: 54535, updated on 10-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: HCR; SBP; pg8; C6orf18

Summary

This gene encodes a protein with five coiled-coil alpha-helical rod domains that is thought to act as a regulator of mRNA metabolism through its interaction with mRNA-decapping protein 4. It localizes to P-bodies, the site of mRNA metabolism, with an N-terminus that is required for this subcellular localization, suggesting it is a P-body component. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with psoriasis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]
