CCT8

CCT8 (Chaperonin Containing TCP1 Subunit 8) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are Organelle biogenesis and maintenance and Innate Immune System. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include unfolded protein binding and ATPase activity, coupled. An important paralog of this gene is CCT8L2.

Chaperonin Containing TCP1 Subunit 8

Component of the chaperonin-containing T-complex (TRiC), a molecular chaperone complex that assists the folding of proteins upon ATP hydrolysis (PubMed:25467444).
The TRiC complex mediates the folding of WRAP53/TCAB1, thereby regulating telomere maintenance (PubMed:25467444).
As part of the TRiC complex may play a role in the assembly of BBSome, a complex involved in ciliogenesis regulating transports vesicles to the cilia (PubMed:20080638).
The TRiC complex plays a role in the folding of actin and tubulin (Probable).
