About WWC2

Cytogenetic location: 4q35.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:183,099,257-183,320,777 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 162 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Broad expression in lung (RPKM 16.2), kidney (RPKM 8.8) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the WW-and-C2-domain-containing family of proteins. Members of this family have two N-terminal WW domains that mediate binding to target proteins harboring L/PPxY motifs, an internal C2 domain for membrane association, and C-terminal alpha protein kinase C binding sites and class III PDZ domain-interaction motifs. Proteins of this family are able to form homo- and heterodimers and to modulate hippo pathway signaling. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]
