ANKRD10 Activators

ANKRD10, or Ankyrin Repeat Domain 10, is a protein encoded by the ANKRD10 gene in humans. Ankyrin repeat domains are one of the most common protein-protein interaction platforms in nature. They are typically involved in mediating interactions with various cellular components, including other proteins, contributing to a diverse array of biological functions.

The ANKRD10 protein is characterized by the presence of ankyrin repeats, which are motifs typically consisting of 33 amino acids that stack together to form a protein-binding interface. Proteins containing ankyrin repeats are known to participate in a wide range of functions, such as signal transduction, cell cycle regulation, and the inflammatory response. ANKRD10, with these conserved structural motifs, is likely to interact with other proteins within the cell, although the specific partners and functional mechanisms of ANKRD10 are not as well characterized as some other ankyrin repeat-containing proteins.As a member of the ankyrin repeat domain-containing family, ANKRD10 may be involved in the regulation of various cellular processes, potentially acting as a scaffold for protein complex assembly or as a mediator of specific protein-protein interactions. Variants in genes coding for ankyrin repeat domain proteins have been linked to various diseases, suggesting that alterations in ANKRD10 function may have pathophysiological consequences.
