Coiled-coil alpha-helical rod protein 1, also known as CCHCR1, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the CCHCR1 gene. [5] [6] [7]
The Human CCHCR1 gene is located at 6p21.33. It is also known as Coiled-Coil Alphahelical Rod Protein 1, C6orf18, Putative Gene 8 Protein, SBP, HCR (A-Helix Coiled-Coil Rod Homologue), pg8, StAR-Binding Protein, and Pg8.
Homologes for CCHCR1 are conserved through tetrapods.
CCHCR1 has orthologs throughout vertebrates.
Phylogenetic analysis with ClustalW indicated that CCHCR1
The CCHCR1 gene has
The structure of CCHCR1 is primarily composed of alpha-helices, coils[ clarification needed ], and a small amount of beta sheets, according to PELE. [8]

May be a regulator of keratinocyte proliferation or differentiation.
CCHCR1 has been shown to interact with POLR2C, [9] KRT17 , [10] TOP3B, [11] Steroidogenic acute regulatory protein, [10] TRAF4, [12] HLA-C, [13] TCF19, [13] SNX29, [14] EEF1D, [15] and EEF1B2. [15]
In genetically engineered mice, certain CCHCR1 polymorphisms cause upregulation of the expression of cytokeratins 6 (KRT6A), 16 (KRT16) and 17 (KRT17) and change in expression in other genes associated with terminal differentiation and formation of the cornified cell envelope. These CCHCR1 polymorphisms may therefore be associated with a susceptibility to psoriasis. [16] Defective functioning of CCHCR1 may lead to abnormal keratinocyte proliferation which is a key feature of psoriasis. [17]
CCHCR1 polymorphisms have also been found to be associated with multiple sclerosis. [18]
ATP-binding cassette sub-family A member 12 also known as ATP-binding cassette transporter 12 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ABCA12 gene.
The neuropeptide S receptor (NPSR) is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor superfamily of integral membrane proteins which binds neuropeptide S (NPS). It was formerly an orphan receptor, GPR154, until the discovery of neuropeptide S as the endogenous ligand. Increased expression of this gene in ciliated cells of the respiratory epithelium and in bronchial smooth muscle cells is associated with asthma. This gene is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor 1 family and encodes a plasma membrane protein. Mutations in this gene have also been associated with this disease.
