CEP85 centrosomal protein 85

Gene ID: 64793, updated on 6-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CCDC21

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the centrosome-associated family of proteins. The centrosome is a subcellular organelle in the animal cell that functions as a microtubule organizing center and is involved in cell-cycle progression. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
