### CCDC167 Gene Overview

**Gene Symbol:** CCDC167  
**Location:** Human Chromosome 1 (1p31.1)

The CCDC167 (Coiled-Coil Domain Containing 167) gene encodes a protein that is predicted to be an integral component of the membrane. The coiled-coil domain suggests that the protein may be involved in various structural and functional processes within cellular membranes.

### Additional Gene Associations
While specific gene interactions may vary in context, some genes that have been noted in studies related to CCDC167 include:

- **CCDC34**: Another coiled-coil domain-containing gene, potentially involved in similar pathways.
- **CCDC88A**: Known to be involved in cytoskeletal organization, which may have functional relevance in cell division.
- **SYT16**: Involved in synaptic transmission, this interaction may link CCDC167 to neuronal functions.

### Aging and Age-Related Diseases
The role of CCDC167 in aging or age-related diseases is not extensively documented. However, coiled-coil proteins are often implicated in cellular mechanisms that could affect aging, such as cell division and apoptosis. Any specific role in longevity or diseases like Alzheimer's, cardiovascular diseases, or cancers would require further research for concrete associations.

### Drug Interactions
As of the latest data, there are no widely recognized drugs or drug classes specifically known to interact with CCDC167. However, potential drug candidates targeting pathways involving CCDC167 could be explored in the context of its biological functions or in diseases where it has been implicated.

### Pathways and Biological Processes
CCDC167 is involved in several biological processes, including:

1. **Cell Division**: As part of the membrane structure, CCDC167 likely plays a role in the organization of the mitotic spindle during cell division.
2. **Cytoskeleton Organization**: Its coiled-coil domain suggests involvement in maintaining cytoskeletal integrity.
3. **Membrane Transport**: Given its predicted localization, CCDC167 may participate in processes associated with membrane protein trafficking.
4. **Signal Transduction**: Potentially, it contributes to signaling pathways due to its membrane association.

### Conclusion
CCDC167 is an integral membrane protein predicted to play roles in cellular processes such as cell division and cytoskeletal dynamics. More specific associations with other genes, aging, drug interactions, and detailed pathways warrant further investigation based on emerging scientific research. As always, the functional implications of these associations may vary based on tissue type, developmental stage, and cellular context.
