DYNC2I2 dynein 2 intermediate chain 2

Gene ID: 89891, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: DIC5; WDR34; FAP133; SRTD11; CFAP133; bA216B9.3

Summary

This gene encodes 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. Defects in this gene are a cause of short-rib thoracic dysplasia 11 with or without polydactyly. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
