Cell division cycle-associated 7-like protein (CDCA7L)

Target
CDCA7L
Molecular classification
Transcription factor, Protein coding gene
01

Overview

Cell division cycle-associated 7-like protein (CDCA7L) acts predominantly as a transcriptional regulator and repressor, notably inhibiting monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) gene expression by binding to its promoter[2][8]. CDCA7L supports cell cycle progression and cell proliferation and has a documented role in MYC-driven oncogenesis, particularly in medulloblastoma[3][8]. It is also involved in apoptotic signaling, with suggested regulatory links to genes and proteins such as CASP3/caspase-3, CCND1/cyclin D1, and E2F1[3]. Its molecular functions and disease associations reflect roles in cancer biology, cell differentiation, and potentially neurological disorders; however, no approved drugs currently target this protein, and its utility as a clinical biomarker or direct safety risks remain undocumented in available translational resources[3][6][8].
