Unlocking the Potential of CYLD-AS1: A drug Target or Biomarker?

Cysteinyl-cysteine protein (CYLD) is a 21-kDa protein that is expressed in various tissues, including brain, heart, lungs, and liver. Cysteinyl-cysteine protein is involved in various cellular processes, including cell signaling, inflammation, and stress response. One of the variants of CYLD, CYLD-AS1, has been identified and is of interest as a potential drug target or biomarker.

CYLD-AS1 Variants

Cysteinyl-cysteine protein (CYLD) has four variants: CYLD-AS1, CYLD-AS2, CYLD-AS3, and CYLD-AS4. CYLD-AS1 is a rare variant that is expressed in only a few tissues, including brain, heart, and spleen. CYLD-AS2 and CYLD-AS3 are more common variants that are expressed in various tissues throughout the body, including muscle, liver, kidney, and pancreas. CYLD-AS4 is a rare variant that is expressed in only a few tissues, including heart and spleen.

CYLD-AS1 Functions

CYLD-AS1 is involved in various cellular processes, including cell signaling, inflammation, and stress response. It is a protein that is involved in the regulation of protein-protein interactions, including the interaction between the protein and the cytosol. It is also involved in the regulation of DNA replication and transcription.

CYLD-AS1 as a Drug Target

CYLD-AS1 is a potential drug target due to its involvement in various cellular processes.
