Cryptic Protein

Preferred Label : Cryptic Protein;

NCIt synonyms : CFC1; CRYPTIC; Cryptic Family Protein 1;

NCIt definition : Cryptic protein (223 aa, 25 kDa) is encoded by the human CFC1 gene. This protein is involved in the establishment of left-right symmetry during embryogenesis.;

NCIt note : Cryptic protein does not exhibit a typical GPI-signal sequence. The C-terminal hydrophilic extension of the GPI-signal sequence reduces the efficiency of processing and could lead to the production of an secreted form. (UniProt); Cryptic protein is a GPI-anchored protein that acts as a coreceptor for nodal homolog. (UniProt);
