| | Domain structure of hCtIP. All known CtIP proteins contain a highly conserved CtBP-binding motif, two CXXC motifs and a phosphorylation site that corresponds to Ser327 in hCtIP. The Rb-binding motif is conserved only in mammalian CtIP. The N-terminal and C-terminal regions of all the CtIP homologs show high degrees of conservation. The ATM target site that corresponds to Ser664 is not conserved in CtIP of certain species (e.g., mouse and chicken). The A9 repeat, a tumor-specific nucleotide polymorphism (G2115A) and a nucleotide polymorphism (G1766A) resulting in an amino acid substitution (K589H) observed in tumor and normal cells are indicated. The region between amino acid positions 45 to 160 is a coiled-coil. A C-terminal region conserved between CtIPs and the plant (Arabidopsis thaliana) gamma response 1 (AtGR1) protein is also indicated (light blue). |

| Description | 897 a.a. polypeptide. |
| Expression | Widely expressed in various human tissues - thymus and testis appear to express the highest levels. |
| Localisation | Predominantly localized in the nucleus; contains 4 potential nuclear localization signals and two leucine zipper motifs, a Rb binding domain, a CtBP binding motif, a coiled-coil domain, two CXXC motifs similar to the Zn-hook motif of Rad50. |
| Function | Potential modulator of BRCA1 in transcriptional regulation, DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoint control.
Family: ezrin/radixin/myosin family
Category: regulatory, transcription factor, antioncogene
Interaction: binds to Rb, CtBP, BRCA1, LMO4, SIAH1, Ikaros, MRE11 complex. |
| Homology | Homolog to C.elegans r05d3.4, fission yeast Ctp1. CtIP is conserved among vertebrates. A C-terminal domain of CtIP is homologous to plant gamma response 1(AtGR1) protein of Arabidopsis thaliana.
Variant: CtIP splice variant (Genebank Accession # NP_976037) with 867 a.a. is identical to CtIP except the C-terminal region (a.a. 786-867). |
| Inactivation of CtIP leads to early embryonic lethality mediated by G1 restraint and to tumorigenesis by haploid insufficiency. |
