About WDR45

Cytogenetic location: Xp11.23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:49,074,442-49,101,178 (from NCBI)

This gene has 44 transcripts (splice variants), 190 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 16.7), adrenal (RPKM 15.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the WD repeat protein family. WD repeats are minimally conserved regions of approximately 40 Amino acids typically bracketed by gly-his and trp-asp (GH-WD), which may facilitate formation of heterotrimeric or multiprotein complexes. Members of this family are involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, signal transduction, Apoptosis, and gene regulation. This gene has a pseudogene at chromosome 4q31.3. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene, but the biological validity and full-length nature of some variants have not been determined.
