HECTD4
HECTD4 is a gene that encodes a protein involved in the regulation of various cellular processes, including cell growth and division. It belongs to the HECT family of E3 ubiquitin ligases, which play a crucial role in tagging proteins for degradation. This process is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and responding to stress.
Mutations or dysregulation of HECTD4 have been linked to certain diseases, including some types of cancer. Research continues to explore its functions and potential implications in oncology and cell biology, aiming to understand how it contributes to health and disease.
