IQ Motif Containing With AAA Domain Protein 1 (IQCA1)

IQCA1, Belongs to the AAA ATPase family. Contains 1 IQ domain.AAA or AAA+ is an abbreviation for ATPases Associated with diverse cellular Activities. They share a common conserved module of approximately 230 amino acid residues. This is a large, functionally diverse protein family belonging to the AAA+ superfamily of ring-shaped P-loop NTPases, which exert their activity through the energy-dependent unfolding of macromolecules. These proteins are involved in a range of processes, including protein degradation, membrane fusion, microtubule severing, peroxisome biogenesis, signal transduction and the regulation of gene expression.The characteristic of AAA proteins is the coupling of chemical energy by ATPase, provided by ATP hydrolysis, to mechanical force exerted on some macromolecular substrate.
