Summary
COMMD7 (COMM domain containing 7, HGNC:16223) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 20q11.21, encoding COMM domain-containing protein 7 (Q86VX2). Scaffold protein in the commander complex that is essential for endosomal recycling of transmembrane cargos; the commander complex is composed of the CCC subcomplex and the retriever subcomplex.
Enables NF-kappaB binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription and tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway. Part of protein-containing complex.

COMM domain-containing protein 7 — Q86VX2 (reviewed: Q86VX2)
All UniProt accessions (3): Q86VX2, V9GY66, V9GYC5
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Scaffold protein in the commander complex that is essential for endosomal recycling of transmembrane cargos; the commander complex is composed of the CCC subcomplex and the retriever subcomplex. May modulate activity of cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase (CRL) complexes. Associates with the NF-kappa-B complex and suppresses its transcriptional activity.
Subunit / interactions. Component of the commander complex consisting of the CCC subcomplex and the retriever subcomplex. Component of the CCC (COMMD/CCDC22/CCDC93) subcomplex consisting of COMMD1, COMMD2, COMMD3, COMMD4, COMMD5, COMMD6, COMMD7, COMMD8, COMMD9, COMMD10, CCDC22 and CCDC93; within the complex forms a heterodimer with COMMD9. Interacts with RELA. Interacts with CCDC22, CCDC93, SCNN1B, CUL7.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasmic vesicle.
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed with highest expression in lung.
Similarity. Belongs to the COMM domain-containing protein 7 family.
