# CCDC184

Coiled-coil domain-containing 184 (CCDC184) is a protein which, in humans, is encoded by the CCDC184 gene

## Gene

Alias for the CCDC184 gene is C12orf68, chromosome 12 open reading frame 68. CCDC184 mRNA sequence, which is 2283 nucleotides in length, and is composed of 1 exon.

### Expression

Human CCDC184 is primarily expressed in the components of the brain, such as hypothalamus, pons, pituitary gland. The gene's expression is enhanced and/or over-expressed in the brain tissue expression. Tissue expression cluster predicted Pituitary gland - Hormone signaling
