Gene: WDR48

Alternate names for this Gene: P80|SPG60|UAF1

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene has been shown to interact with ubiquitin specific peptidase 1 (USP1), activating the deubiquitinating activity of USP1 and allowing it to remove the ubiquitin moiety from monoubiquitinated FANCD2. FANCD2 is ubiquitinated in response to DNA damage.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 3

Location in Chromosome : 3p22.2

Description of this Gene: WD repeat domain 48

Type of Gene: protein-coding
