Gene information for WRAP73 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID49856
Official gene symbolWRAP73
Full nameWD repeat domain 8
Aliases,WDR8,
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. Studies of the related mouse protein suggest that the encoded protein may play a role in the process of ossification. [provided by RefSeq]
