Gene information for WDR12 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID55759
Official gene symbolWDR12
Full nameWD repeat domain 12
Aliases,FLJ10881,FLJ12719,FLJ12720,YTM1,
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 is highly similar to the mouse WD repeat domain 12 protein at the amino acid level. The protein encoded by this gene is a component of a nucleolar protein complex that affects maturation of the large ribosomal subunit.
