WDR4 Monoclonal Antibody (OTI4G1), TrueMAB™, OriGene

Required for 7-methylguanosine modification of tRNA. This protein is 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 trp-asp (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 is excluded as a candidate for a form of nonsyndromic deafness (DFNB10). but is still a candidate for other disorders mapped to 21q22.3 as well as for the development of Down syndrome phenotypes. Alternative splicing of this gene generates at least 3 transcript variants. two of which diverge at the 3′ UTR and thus encode the same protein products.
