Calcium channel associated transcriptional regulator (CCAT) is a
transcription factor
In molecular biology, a transcription factor (TF) (or sequence-specific DNA-binding factor) is a protein that controls the rate of transcription (genetics), transcription of genetics, genetic information from DNA to messenger RNA, by binding t ...
found in mammalian cells.
Generation
In neuronal cells, CCAT is generated upon activation of a cryptic promoter in exon 46 of ''CACNA1C'', the gene that encodes the voltage-gated calcium channel
Cav1.2.
