| HGNC Family | Tetratricopeptide repeat domain containing (TTC) |
| Name | tetratricopeptide repeat domain 22 |
| Description | This gene encodes a protein with seven tetratricopeptide (TPR) repeats. Tetratricopeptide repeat containing motifs are found in a variety of proteins and may mediate protein-protein interactions and chaperone activity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011] |
| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn colon cancer, a specific variant of TTC22, known as TTC22V1, has been implicated as a metastasis‐associated gene. Research shows that TTC22V1 mRNA is negatively regulated by miR663a, a microRNA that is significantly downregulated in colon cancer tissues, especially in metastatic cases. Overexpression of miR663a inhibits TTC22V1 expression, consequently reducing cell migration and invasion, while forced TTC22V1 expression promotes these metastatic behaviors. Notably, TTC22 protein is localized in the nuclei of epithelial cells within colon stem cell niches, and its higher expression correlates with poorer patient survival outcomes, suggesting a pivotal role in colon cancer progression and metastasis."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\nDisparate studies in cancer research further explore alternative molecular targets; for example, one investigation identified PACMA 31 as a novel inhibitor of thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), underscoring the broader landscape of therapeutic targets in oncology.
