CCT8 chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 8 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 10694)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 10694)
Symbol: CCT8
Full name: chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 8
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: C21orf112; Cctq; D21S246; PRED71
Summary: This gene encodes the theta subunit of the CCT chaperonin, which is abundant in the eukaryotic cytosol and may be involved in the transport and assembly of newly synthesized proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene. A pseudogene related to this gene is located on chromosome 1. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]
