Gene information for BRWD1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID54014
Official gene symbolBRWD1
Full namebromodomain and WD repeat domain containing 1
Aliases,C21orf107,FLJ43918,N143,WDR9,
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 protein contains 2 bromodomains and multiple WD repeats, and the function of this protein is not known. This gene is located within the Down syndrome region-2 on chromosome 21. Alternative splicing of this gene generates 3 transcript variants diverging at the 3' ends. [provided by RefSeq]
