Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 4)
- Molecular interactions guiding the protein recognition between Mia40 and the disulfide-reduced CHCHD5 and CHCHD7. (PMID:22842048)
- There was a statistically significant association between rs3748024 and systolic blood pressure (SBP) under an additive model adjusted for age, gender and body mass index (BMI) after correction for multiple testing. The SNP was also significantly associated with BMI, obesity, and triglycerides. (PMID:28893745)
- CHTM1 is a novel metabolic marker that is important for the growth of tumorigenic cells under limiting nutrient supplies and thus, links cellular metabolism and tumorigenesis. (PMID:29371680)
- Study reports a novel function of CHTM1 via which CHTM1 alters lung cancer cell survival under metabolic-stress. For example, CHTM1 interacts with AIF1 and affects stress-induced cytosol/nuclear translocation of AIF1 as well as cell death. CHTM1 appears to mediate these effects by negatively regulating the p38 kinase. Also, CHTM1 is overexpressed in lung cancer patients. (PMID:31221176)
