WDR1 WD repeat domain 1

Gene ID: 9948, updated on 3-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: AIP1; PFITS; NORI-1; HEL-S-52

Summary

This gene encodes a protein containing 9 WD repeats. WD repeats are approximately 30- to 40-amino acid domains containing several conserved residues, mostly including a trp-asp at the C-terminal end. WD domains are involved in protein-protein interactions. The encoded protein may help induce the disassembly of actin filaments. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
