'''CCDC138''' (Coiled-Coil Domain Containing 138) is a [[protein]] that in humans is encoded by the '''CCDC138''' [[gene]]. This gene is located on [[chromosome 2 (human)|chromosome 2]].<br />
== Function ==<br />
The specific function of the CCDC138 protein is not well understood. Proteins with coiled-coil domains are often involved in a variety of cellular processes, including [[cell signaling]], [[transcription (biology)|transcription]], and [[intracellular transport]]. The coiled-coil domain typically facilitates protein-protein interactions, suggesting that CCDC138 may play a role in these processes.<br />
== Gene ==<br />
The CCDC138 gene is located on the long arm (q arm) of [[chromosome 2 (human)|chromosome 2]] at position 31.1. The gene spans approximately 50,000 base pairs and consists of multiple exons. The gene is expressed in various tissues, indicating that it may have a broad functional role in the body.<br />
== Clinical Significance ==<br />
Mutations or alterations in the CCDC138 gene have not been widely studied, and their clinical significance remains largely unknown. Further research is needed to determine if there are any associations between CCDC138 and specific diseases or disorders.<br />
== Research ==<br />
Ongoing research aims to elucidate the function of the CCDC138 protein and its potential role in human health and disease. Studies involving [[gene expression]] analysis, [[protein-protein interaction]] assays, and [[model organisms]] may provide further insights into the biological significance of CCDC138.<br />
