WDR45B WD repeat domain 45B

Gene ID: 56270, updated on 11-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: WIPI3; WDR45L; WIPI-3; NEDSBAS

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the WIPI or SVP1 family of WD40 repeat-containing proteins. The protein contains seven WD40 repeats that are thought to fold into a beta-propeller structure that mediates protein-protein interactions, and a conserved motif for interaction with phospholipids. The human genome contains several pseudogenes of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
