WDR90


Description

The WDR90 (WD repeat domain 90) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 16.

WDR90, a protein encoded by the WDR90 gene (located on chromosome 16 at position 16p13.3), is a large protein (1750 amino acids, 187.7 kDa) containing numerous WD40 repeat domains and an unknown domain. Its function is conserved across species, extending back to invertebrates. This protein family is known to be involved in a wide range of cellular processes, including signal transduction, transcription regulation, cell cycle control, autophagy, and apoptosis. WDR90 spans from base pairs 649363 to 667833 in the human genome, with an mRNA sequence of 5,250 nucleotides. The gene comprises 41 exons. Aliases for WDR90 include: C16orf15, C16orf16, C16orf17, C16orf18, C16orf19, and KIAA1924.

WDR90 is also known as C16orf15, C16orf16, C16orf17, C16orf18, C16orf19, POC16.
