WBP11 WW domain binding protein 11

Gene ID: 51729, updated on 3-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: BUG13; FAP90; NPWBP; SIPP1; VCTRL; CFAP90; VCTERL; WBP-11; PPP1R165

Summary

This gene encodes a nuclear protein, which colocalizes with mRNA splicing factors and intermediate filament-containing perinuclear networks. This protein has 95% amino acid sequence identity to the mouse Wbp11 protein. It contains two proline-rich regions that bind to the WW domain of Npw38, a nuclear protein, and thus this protein is also called Npw38-binding protein NpwBP. The Npw38-NpwBP complex may function as a component of an mRNA factory in the nucleus. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
