CCDC141 Inhibitors

CCDC141, or Coiled-Coil Domain Containing 141, is a protein-coding gene found in humans and other organisms. This gene is a part of the coiled-coil domain-containing protein family, which plays a crucial role in various cellular processes. CCDC141 is located on a specific region of a chromosome and codes for a protein with a coiled-coil domain.The coiled-coil domain is a structural motif in proteins characterized by its helical structure, where two or more alpha helices wrap around each other like the strands of a rope. This domain is involved in protein-protein interactions, which are essential for various cellular functions, including signal transduction, molecular transport, and the formation of complex protein structures.

The specific functions of CCDC141 are still being studied, and its exact role in cellular processes may vary depending on the context. Some coiled-coil domain-containing proteins are known to be involved in cell division, intracellular transport, and cytoskeletal organization. Therefore, CCDC141 may contribute to these processes as well.Research into CCDC141 is ongoing, and it is important for understanding its role in normal cellular function and implications in disease. Mutations or dysregulation of genes like CCDC141 can sometimes lead to genetic disorders or contribute to the development of various diseases, making it a topic of interest in molecular biology and genetics research.
