Description

CCNI2 encodes cyclin I2, a member of the cyclin family involved in cell cycle regulation. Cyclin I2 is thought to function in the control of the G1/S phase transition and may have roles in neuronal development and cancer. The protein contains a cyclin box domain and is expressed in multiple tissues, with highest levels in testis and brain.

Loss of Function (LOF)

Frameshift mutations (e.g., c.745_746insA) likely result in truncated, non-functional protein.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No confirmed gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No evidence for dominant-negative effects.

Protein Summary

Cyclin I2 is a 45 kDa protein containing a cyclin box domain. It interacts with cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) to regulate cell cycle progression. Expression is enriched in testis and brain, suggesting roles in spermatogenesis and neurodevelopment. Structural studies indicate a conserved cyclin fold.
