CCDC6 (Coiled-coil domain-containing protein 6) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a tumour suppressor, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Lung cancer, Thyroid cancer, Neuroendocrine tumours and 2 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.

Biology

Acts as a structural scaffold that organises free PP2Ac into a configuration that FBXO42 can recognise and ubiquitinate, leading to its proteasomal degradation. Also interacts independently with PPP4C through a mechanism distinct from FBXO42-mediated ubiquitination. Location: Cytoplasm; Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton (UniProt). Locus 10q21.2 (HGNC).
