Description
Product Characteristics:
CacyBP is a 228 amino acid protein encoded by the human gene CACYBP. CacyBP is primarily a nuclear protein that contains one CS domain and one SGS domain. CacyBP is believed to be involved in calcium-dependent ubiquitination and subsequent proteosomal degradation of target proteins. It most likely serves as a molecular bridge in ubiquitin E3 complexes. It also participates in the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of b-catenin. CacyBP is thought to be a potential inhibitor of cell growth and invasion in the gastric cancer cell through its effects on b-catenin protein expression and transcriptional activation of TCF/LEF.

Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene is a calcyclin binding protein. It may be involved in calcium-dependent ubiquitination and subsequent proteosomal degradation of target proteins. It probably serves as a molecular bridge in ubiquitin E3 complexes and participates in the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of beta-catenin. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
