About WFDC1

Cytogenetic location: 16q24.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:84,294,878-84,329,844 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants) and 193 orthologues. Biased expression in placenta (RPKM 49.5), prostate (RPKM 33.0) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the WAP-type four disulfide core domain family. The WAP-type four-disulfide core domain contains eight cysteines forming four disulfide bonds at the core of the protein, and functions as a protease inhibitor in many family members. This gene is mapped to chromosome 16q24, an area of frequent loss of heterozygosity in cancers, including prostate, breast and hepatocellular cancers and Wilms' tumor. This gene is downregulated in many Cancer types and may be involved in the inhibition of cell proliferation. The encoded protein may also play a role in the susceptibility of certain CD4 memory T cells to human immunodeficiency virus Infection. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
