CRTC1 wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human CRTC1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 19p13.11 and is approximately 99 kb in length. This allele, which encodes CREB-regulated transcription coactivator 1 protein, is involved in transcriptional activation. A translocation t(11;19)(q21;p13) involving this gene and the MAML2 gene is associated with mucoepidermoid carcinomas, benign Warthin tumors and clear cell hidradenomas.

**Synonyms:** - CREB Regulated Transcription Coactivator 1 wt Allele - FLJ14027 - KIAA0616 - MECT1 - Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma Translocated 1 Gene - TORC1 - WAMTP1
