ANKHD1
ANKHD1
ANKHD1 is a gene that encodes a protein involved in various cellular processes. The gene is located on chromosome 5 in humans. ANKHD1 plays a role in cell signaling, transcriptional regulation, and development.
Function[edit | edit source]
The ANKHD1 protein contains multiple ankyrin repeats and a KH domain, which are important for protein-protein interactions and RNA binding, respectively. It is known to interact with other proteins involved in signaling pathways and gene expression regulation.
Clinical Significance[edit | edit source]
Mutations in the ANKHD1 gene have been associated with certain developmental disorders and cancers. Studies have shown that dysregulation of ANKHD1 expression can lead to abnormal cell growth and differentiation.
Research[edit | edit source]
Research on ANKHD1 is ongoing to further understand its role in cellular processes and disease development. Scientists are investigating potential therapeutic targets related to ANKHD1 for various conditions.
