C6orf35
UPF0463 transmembrane protein C6orf35 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the C6orf35 (chromosome 6 open reading frame 35) gene.[1]
This protein contains a DUF1358 domain (Domain of Unknown Function 1358).[2]
Domain
The C6orf35 protein has a conserved domain of unknown function pfam 07096, DUF 1358., which covers the first 121 aa of the protein. This domain is conserved in eukaryotes.
Associated Proteins
Several predicted interacting proteins and functional sites on the protein have been identified. One of the predicted interacting protein is MAP2K1IP1, which is a scaffold protein.[3] This protein is known to be involved in the MAP Kinase pathway. The MAP Kinase pathway is associated with the Alzheimer’s pathway through a protein called Tau or MAPT. Excessive phosphorylation of this protein leads to aggregation of neurons which can cause Alzheimer’s disease.
