LANCL1
protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

LanC like 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LANCL1 gene.
Function
This gene encodes a loosely associated peripheral membrane protein related to the LanC family of bacterial membrane-associated proteins involved in the biosynthesis of antimicrobial peptides. This protein may play a role as a peptide-modifying enzyme component in eukaryotic cells. Previously considered a member of the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily, this protein is now in the LanC family. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.

“LANCL1” enters the record as protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what LANCL1, protein-coding and gene can confirm, complicate or overturn.
Why this record matters
“LANCL1” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, LANCL1, protein-coding and gene provides the most credible route into that argument.
Stable identifiers, scientific names and standards terminology offer the best bridge between this overview and specialist evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 21, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q18035287. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
Scientific names, classifications and consensus can change while older terminology persists in catalogues and historical literature. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
How to read it
