Micro-CT Imaging Reveals Mekk3 Heterozygosity Prevents Cerebral Cavernous Malformations in Ccm2-Deficient Mice. [PDF]
Mutations in CCM1 (aka KRIT1), CCM2, or CCM3 (aka PDCD10) gene cause cerebral cavernous malformation in humans. Mouse models of CCM disease have been established by deleting Ccm genes in postnatal animals.

Regional Response of the NCAR CCM1 to Anomalous Surface Properties
Sensitivity tests of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community Climate Model-1 (CCM1) response to surface forcing from sea surface temperature (SST) and soil moisture on precipitation are presented. Four experiments were performed, including a control experiment using climatological SSTs, an experiment with 1988 SSTs, which are ...

Rap1 and its effector KRIT1/CCM1 regulate β-catenin signaling [PDF]
SUMMARYKRIT1, also called CCM1, is a member of a multiprotein complex that contains the products of the CCM2 and PDCD10 (also known as CCM3) loci. Heterozygous loss of any of the genes that encode these proteins leads to cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM), which are vascular lesions that are found in around 0.5% of humans.

A novel CCM1 mutation associated with multiple cerebral and vertebral cavernous malformations [PDF]
Background: Cerebral cavernous malformations are relatively rare vascular disorders that may affect any part of the central nervous system. This presentation has been associated with heterozygous mutations in CCM1/KRIT1, CCM2/malcavernin and CCM3/PDCD10.

Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a vascular lesion of the central nervous system that may lead to distinct symptoms among patients including cerebral hemorrhages, epileptic seizures, focal neurologic deficits, and/or headaches.

KRIT-1/CCM1 is a Rap1 effector that regulates endothelial cell–cell junctions [PDF]
Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM), a disease associated with defective endothelial junctions, result from autosomal dominant CCM1 mutations that cause loss of KRIT-1 protein function, though how the loss of KRIT-1 leads to CCM is obscure. KRIT-1 binds to Rap1, a guanosine triphosphatase that maintains the integrity of endothelial junctions.
