Chromosome 10 Open Reading Frame 11 (C10orf11)

C10orf11 Contains 4 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats.Contains 1 LRRCT domain. Leucine-rich repeats consist of 2-45 motifs of 20-30 amino acids in length that generally folds into an arc or horseshoe shape. LRRs occur in proteins ranging from viruses to eukaryotes, and appear to provide a structural framework for the formation of protein-protein interactions. Proteins containing LRRs include tyrosine kinase receptors, cell-adhesion molecules, virulence factors, and extracellular matrix-binding glycoproteins, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including signal transduction, cell adhesion, DNA repair, recombination, transcription, RNA processing, disease resistance, apoptosis, and the immune response.LRRs are often flanked by cysteine-rich domains: an N-terminal LRR domain and a C-terminal LRR domain.
