Full name: cytohesin 1 interacting protein

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: B3-1; CASP; CYBR; CYTHIP; HE; PSCDBP

Summary: The protein encoded by this gene contains 2 leucine zipper domains and a putative C-terminal nuclear targeting signal, but does not have any hydrophobic regions. This protein is expressed weakly in resting NK and T cells. The encoded protein modulates the activation of ARF genes by CYTH1. This protein interacts with CYTH1 and SNX27 proteins and may act to sequester CYTH1 protein in the cytoplasm.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]

Expression: Biased expression in lymph node (RPKM 28.7), bone marrow (RPKM 27.5) and 11 other tissues

Gene size: 29471bp

Exon count: 9
