Cancer Protein Description

This report provides a detailed description of a selected cancer protein with information collected from various sources, including UniProt, the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute’s Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC), and the Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology.


Protein Name: CCDC85B
Gene Name: CCDC85B
Protein Full Name: Coiled-coil domain-containing protein 85B
Alias: Hepatitis delta antigen-interacting protein A
Mass (Da): 22091
Number AA: 202
UniProt ID: Q15834
Locus ID: 11007
COSMIC ID: CCDC85B
Gene location on chromosome: 11q12.1
Number of cancer specimens: 19625
Percent of cancer specimens with mutations: 0.04
Commentary on involvement of protein in cancer: Functions as a transcriptional repressor. May inhibit the activity of CTNNB1 in a TP53-dependent manner and thus regulate cell growth. May function in adipocyte differentiation, negatively regulating mitotic clonal expansion.
