GlossaryDDB1 and CUL4 associated factor 17 (DCAF17)

protein involved in tagging unwanted proteins for degradation

DDB1 and CUL4 associated factor 17, also known as DCAF17, is a protein that plays a role in the regulation of cellular processes by participating in the ubiquitin-proteasome system, which tags unwanted proteins for degradation. Mutations in the DCAF17 gene have been linked to certain forms of alopecia, a condition characterized by hair loss, highlighting its importance in hair follicle biology and maintenance.
