### CCDC150 Gene Overview

**Gene Symbol**: CCDC150

**Function**: The CCDC150 (Coiled-Coil Domain Containing 150) gene encodes a protein that is thought to be involved in various cellular processes, although specific functions are still being characterized. The protein may play a role in structural organization within the cell due to the presence of coiled-coil domains.

### 1. Associated Genes
While the specific gene interactions for CCDC150 may not be extensively characterized, several studies suggest potential associations with genes involved in structural integrity and cellular signaling. Some commonly explored genes in pathways or networks involving CCDC150 include:

- **TTLL1**: Encodes a tubulin tyrosine ligase and is involved in microtubule modification and stabilization.
- **KRT8**: Encodes keratin 8, a member of the keratin gene family, often studied in association with cell integrity.
- **RAN**: Involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport which might link cellular organization processes.

### 2. Aging and Age-Related Diseases
The information regarding CCDC150 specifically related to aging or age-related diseases is relatively limited. However, genes involved in structural integrity and cellular organization, like CCDC150, may have indirect roles in age-related processes such as:

- **Cellular senescence**: The accumulation of senescent cells can contribute to aging, and structural proteins are crucial for cell viability and function.
- **Degenerative diseases**: Misregulation of cytoskeletal and structural genes is often implicated in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s, but explicit connections to CCDC150 may need more research.

### 3. Drug Interactions
As of the latest data, there are no specific drugs or drug classes that are explicitly documented to interact with CCDC150 in a therapeutic context. Due to the gene's lesser-known status, research may need to explore its role further in cellular pathways before definitive drug interactions are established.

### 4. Pathways and Biological Processes
CCDC150 has been mentioned in various biological processes and pathways, likely reflecting its role in cell structure and organization. Some possible processes include:

- **Cell cycle regulation**: Involvement in maintaining the structural integrity of cells, which is crucial during division.
- **Cytoskeleton organization**: The coiled-coil domain suggests a potential role in binding and maintaining cytoskeletal structures.
- **Signal transduction pathways**: As a structure-related gene, CCDC150 may play roles in various signaling pathways, especially those related to growth factor signaling.

Further research may identify more specific roles and put CCDC150 in more defined pathways or disease contexts, particularly as it relates to physiological stress, aging, and developmental processes.
