### Gene Overview
**Gene Symbol:** COILP1  
**Full Name:** Coiled-coil domain containing protein 1  
**NCBI Gene ID:** 1808

COILP1 encodes a protein that may be involved in cytoskeletal organization and cellular processes, though specific functional details are still being elucidated. The protein’s coiled-coil domains suggest a structural role in oligomerization and interactions with other proteins.

### 1. Associated Genes
While specific additional genes that COILP1 interacts with or is associated with are not typically detailed in standard summaries, it’s common for genes involved in cytoskeletal organization and protein interactions, such as:

- **CCT2** (Chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 2)
- **CCT6A** (Chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 6A)
- **MYH9** (Myosin heavy chain 9)
  
These genes are involved in cellular stress responses and structural integrity, which may overlap functionally with COILP1.

### 2. Aging and Age-Related Diseases
There is limited direct research linking COILP1 specifically to aging or age-related diseases. However, considering its involvement in cytoskeletal organization, it is plausible that alterations in its function might contribute to cellular aging processes or diseases related to cytoskeletal dysfunction, such as neurodegenerative diseases or certain types of cancer. Further experimental studies would be required to establish a more definitive link.

### 3. Drug Interactions
There is no specific information on drugs or drug classes that interact directly with COILP1. However, due to its potential role in cytoskeletal organization, it might be indirectly relevant to drugs that target cytoskeletal elements or processes, such as:

- **Taxanes** (e.g., Paclitaxel) - These affect the microtubule dynamics and could have indirect interactions with proteins associated with the cytoskeleton.
- **Vincas** (e.g., Vincristine) - Inhibit microtubule polymerization and may also relate to cellular functions involving COILP1.

### 4. Pathways and Biological Processes
COILP1 is believed to be involved in several biological pathways, particularly related to:

- **Cytoskeletal Organization:** COILP1 is potentially involved in processes that assemble and maintain the cytoskeleton structure.
- **Cell Cycle Regulation:** Through interactions with other proteins in the cellular machinery, it may play a role in cell division and cycle regulation.
- **Gene Expression:** COILP1 may also be implicated in the regulation of gene expression through its protein interactions.

Additionally, pathways related to stress response, cellular motility, and intracellular transport may also be relevant, although specific pathways linked directly to COILP1 require further investigation for concrete details.
