Gene: COPS4
Alternate names for this Gene: CSN4|SGN4
Gene Summary: This gene encodes one of eight subunits composing COP9 signalosome, a highly conserved protein complex that functions as an important regulator in multiple signaling pathways. The structure and function of COP9 signalosome is similar to that of the 19S regulatory particle of 26S proteasome. COP9 signalosome has been shown to interact with SCF-type E3 ubiquitin ligases and act as a positive regulator of E3 ubiquitin ligases. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 4
Location in Chromosome : 4q21.22
Description of this Gene: COP9 signalosome subunit 4
Type of Gene: protein-coding
