该基因编码的蛋白质包含cg1-dna结合域、转录因子免疫球蛋白域、锚蛋白重复序列和钙调素结合iq基序。编码蛋白被认为是一种转录因子，可能是一种肿瘤抑制因子然而，有时在该基因和wwtr1基因之间观察到易位事件，由此产生的wwtr1-camta1癌蛋白导致上皮样血管内皮瘤，一种恶性血管癌。[由RefSeq提供，2017年3月]
The protein encoded by this gene contains a CG1 DNA-binding domain, a transcription factor immunoglobulin domain, ankyrin repeats, and calmodulin-binding IQ motifs. The encoded protein is thought to be a transcription factor and may be a tumor suppressor. However, a translocation event is sometimes observed between this gene and the WWTR1 gene, with the resulting WWTR1-CAMTA1 oncoprotein leading to epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, a malignant vascular cancer.
