背景
This 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 trpasp (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 7 WD
repeats. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been
identified.
