Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** CENPC is a highly conserved protein that belongs to the centromere protein family. It is characterized by its ability to bind to centromeric DNA and interact with other kinetochore proteins. CENPC is also known to regulate the activity of the spindle checkpoint, a mechanism that ensures proper chromosome segregation during mitosis. **Pathways and Functions:** CENPC is involved in several key pathways that regulate mitotic cell cycle progression. These include: 1. **Amplification of signal from the kinetochores**: CENPC helps to amplify signals from the kinetochores, ensuring that the spindle apparatus is properly attached to the chromosomes. 2. **Attachment of mitotic spindle microtubules to kinetochore**: CENPC interacts with other kinetochore proteins to facilitate the attachment of microtubules to the kinetochore. 3. **Resolution of sister chromatid cohesion**: CENPC helps to regulate the separation of sister chromatids by interacting with proteins that control the cohesion between sister chromatids. 4. **Signal transduction by Rho GTPases**: CENPC is also involved in signal transduction pathways that regulate spindle attachment and chromosome segregation in response to Rho GTPases. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of CENPC has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer and neurological disorders. For example, alterations in CENPC expression have been observed in several types of cancer, including breast and ovarian cancer. Additionally, CENPC has been shown to play a role in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. In terms of its clinical significance, CENPC is a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of diseases characterized by abnormal mitotic cell cycle regulation. For example, inhibitors of CENPC have been shown to prevent the progression of cancer cells through the cell cycle, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent. **Significantly Expressed Cells:** CENPC is highly expressed in various cell types, including: 1. **Pigmented epithelial cells**: CENPC is highly expressed in pigmented epithelial cells, which are involved in the formation of the visual system. 2. **Non-pigmented ciliary epithelial cells**: CENPC is also expressed in non-pigmented ciliary epithelial cells, which are involved in the formation of the lens. 3. **Neuronal cells**: CENPC is highly expressed in various types of neuronal cells, including GABAergic cortical interneurons. 4. **Muscle cells**: CENPC is also expressed in muscle cells, including ciliary muscle cells. In conclusion, CENPC is a complex protein that plays a critical role in regulating mitotic cell cycle progression. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer and neurological disorders. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of CENPC in disease and to develop therapeutic strategies that target this protein.

Database document:

This is a preview of the gene's schema. Only a few entries are kept for 'singleCellExpressions,' 'mRNAExpressions,' and other large data arrays for visualization purposes. You can zoom in with the mouse wheel for a closer view, and the text will adjust automatically if necessary. For the full schema, download it here.
