Gene information for WFDC3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID140686
Official gene symbolWFDC3
Full nameWAP four-disulfide core domain 3
Aliases,WAP14,dJ447F3.3,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the WAP-type four-disulfide core (WFDC) domain family. The WFDC domain, or WAP signature motif, contains eight cysteines forming four disulfide bonds at the core of the protein, and functions as a protease inhibitor. The encoded protein contains four WFDC domains. Most WFDC genes are localized to chromosome 20q12-q13 in two clusters: centromeric and telomeric. This gene belongs to the telomeric cluster. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed but their full-length nature has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq]
