WDR73 - WD repeat domain 73 Gene
Also Known as GAMOS; GAMOS1; HSPC264
Species: Homo sapiens
About WDR73
This gene has 21 transcripts (splice variants), 190 orthologues, 9 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 6.8), prostate (RPKM 5.3) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is thought to contain multiple WD40 repeats. WD40 repeats are motifs that contain 40-60 Amino acids, and usually end with Trp-Asp (WD). This protein is found in the cytoplasm during interphase, but accumulates at the spindle poles and astral microtubules during Mitosis. Reduced expression of this gene results in abnormalities in the size and morphology of the nucleus. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Galloway-Mowat syndrome PMID: 25466283), which is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that affects both the central nervous system and kidneys. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]
