Centromere protein A
Active
Description
Centromere protein A (CENP-A) is an essential centromere protein encoded by the CENPA gene. Overexpression of CENP-A causes chromosomal aberrations, and depletion of CENP-A promotes apoptosis and induces cell cycle arrest. Overexpression of CENP-A has been associated with high grade cancers and is a prognostic factor for patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. Antibodies to CENP-A are associated with scleroderma, systemic sclerosis, CREST syndrome, and other rheumatologic diseases. Source: Regenstrief LOINC
