Coiled-coil domain containing 8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CCDC8 gene .[ 5]
This gene encodes a coiled coil domain-containing protein. The encoded protein functions as a cofactor required for p53 -mediated apoptosis following DNA damage, and may also play a role in growth through interactions with the cytoskeletal adaptor protein obscurin-like 1 .
