Gene data
CCT6B- Name
- chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 6B
- Type
- protein-coding
- Aliases
- CCT-zeta-2, CCTZ-2, Cctz2, TCP-1-zeta-2, TSA303
This gene encodes a molecular chaperone that is a member of the chaperonin-containing TCP1 complex (CCT), also known as the TCP1 ring complex (TRiC). This complex consists of two identical stacked rings, each containing eight different proteins. Unfolded polypeptides enter the central cavity of the complex and are folded in an ATP-dependent manner. The complex folds various proteins, including actin and tubulin. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015].

T-complex protein 1 subunit zeta-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CCT6B gene.
This gene encodes a molecular chaperone that is a member of the TRiC complex. This complex consists of two identical stacked rings, each containing eight different proteins. Unfolded polypeptides enter the central cavity of the complex and are folded in an ATP-dependent manner. The complex folds various proteins, including actin and tubulin. Alternate transcriptional splice variants of this gene have been observed but have not been thoroughly characterized.
