Gene information for WDR45 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID11152
Official gene symbolWDR45
Full nameWD repeat domain 45
Aliases,JM5,WDRX1,WIPI-4,WIPI4,
Gene summaryThis 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.
