Sperm antigen with calponin homology and coiled-coil domains 1-like (SPECC1L)

Target
SPECC1L
Molecular classification
Other, Actin cytoskeletal protein
01

Overview

SPECC1L is a protein encoded by the sperm antigen with calponin homology and coiled-coil domains 1-like gene. It plays a critical role in actin-cytoskeletal reorganization, cell adhesion, migration, and spindle organization during cell division and is essential for craniofacial development, particularly facial morphogenesis. Mutations cause developmental syndromes such as oblique facial clefting-1 and Teebi hypertelorism syndrome 1. It is not currently a direct drug target and is most relevant in the context of developmental biology and human disease genetics.
