    basic FUNCTION
  • potential chaperonin
  • modulating TP53-dependent function and avoid senescence
  • maintains cellular protein folding homeostasis in the eukaryotic cytosol by assisting the biogenesis of many proteins, including actins, tubulins, and regulators of the cell cycle
  • required for maturation of sphingosine kinase 1
  • folds the cytoskeletal protein actin
  • CCT complex is responsible for the folding of a number of proteins including actin and tubulin
  • multi-subunit molecular machine thought to assist in the folding of 10p100 of newly translated cytosolic proteins in eukaryotes (
  • normal TCP1 function is ultimately required for the morphogenesis and survival of sensory neurons of the retina, and suggest the chaperonin TCP1 deficiency as a potential, yet unexplored, cause of neurodegenerative diseases
  • TCP1 complex harbor at least one putative zona pellucida binding protein, ZPBP2, playing a role in the mediation of sperm-zona pellucida interaction
  • molecular chaperone TRiC/CCT is essential for correct protein folding, DYRK1A binding, and nuclear accumulation of DCAF7
  • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, post translation, folding
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • component of a heterooligomeric complex, 97kDa, containing
  • several structurally related subunits, assembled into a TCP1 ring and mediating ATP dependent, monomeric protein folding
  • part of chaperonin containing TCP1 complex (CCT), also known as the TCP1 ring complex (TRiC)
  • molecular chaperones having a post-translational role in maintaining the native form of actin during its slow transport to the axon terminal and ensuring its correct assembly into microfilaments
  • complex formed by two back-to-back stacked hetero-octameric rings that assists the folding of actins, tubulins, and other proteins in an ATP-dependent manner
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule cofactor,
  • PDCL is thought to act as a TCP1 co-factor
  • protein
  • interacting with PLK1 (is required for the biogenesis of functional PLK1)
  • PDCL2 physically interacts with TCP1 and modulates its folding activity
  • formation of a stable complex between chaperonin-containing TCP1 and HSPA8, two eukaryotic representatives of these chaperone families
  • interacts with huntingtin and results in decrease of aggregate formation followed by increase of cell survival
  • TCP1 ring complex/chaperonin-containing TCP1 (TRiC/CCT) were identified as major DCAF7-binding proteins, and phosphorylation sites in both DCAF7 and TRiC/CCT were identified
  • key checkpoint function for the chaperonin TCP1, which specifically associates with nascent TAF5 for subsequent handover to TAF6-TAF9 and ultimate holo-TBP formation
