Gene: WDHD1

Alternate names for this Gene: AND-1|AND1|CHTF4|CTF4

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene contains multiple N-terminal WD40 domains and a C-terminal high mobility group (HMG) box. WD40 domains are found in a variety of eukaryotic proteins and may function as adaptor/regulatory modules in signal transduction, pre-mRNA processing and cytoskeleton assembly. HMG boxes are found in many eukaryotic proteins involved in chromatin assembly, transcription and replication. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 14

Location in Chromosome : 14q22.2-q22.3

Description of this Gene: WD repeat and HMG-box DNA binding protein 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
