About WWOX

Cytogenetic location: 16q23.1-q23.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:78,099,654-79,212,667 (from NCBI)

This gene has 25 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues, 25 paralogues and is associated with 9 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 4.4), kidney (RPKM 2.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) protein family. This gene spans the FRA16D common chromosomal fragile site and appears to function as a tumor suppressor gene. Expression of the encoded protein is able to induce Apoptosis, while defects in this gene are associated with multiple types of Cancer. Disruption of this gene is also associated with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 12. Disruption of a similar gene in mouse results in impaired steroidogenesis, additionally suggesting a metabolic function for the protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
