WSB2 - WD repeat and SOCS box containing 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as SBA2

Gene ID: 55884 | Gene type: protein coding

About WSB2

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 208 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 65.4), thyroid (RPKM 28.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the WD-protein subfamily. The encoded protein contains five WD-repeats spanning most of the protein and an SOCS box in the C-terminus. The SOCS box may act as a bridge between specific substrate-binding domains and E3 ubiquitin protein ligases. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
