CUZD1: Proteins and Enzymes

CUZD1, also known as CUB and zona pellucida-like domain-containing protein 1, contains a 68 kDa, 37 kDa, and 27 kDa isoform, and is involved in preventing the attachment and proliferation of ovarian cancer cells, and may also affect the uterus during the final stages of pregnancy. Researchers are currently conducting experiments to determine the relationship between CUZD1 and diseases such as ovarian cancer and pancreatitis. The protein interacts with PTPN6, and is linked to cell migration, cell proliferation, and the hormone-mediated signaling pathway.
