Description: Homo sapiens WD repeat domain 44 (WDR44), transcript variant 1, mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_019045): This gene encodes a protein that interacts with the small GTPase rab11. A similar protein in rat binds the GTP-containing active form of rab11. This protein may play a role in endosome recycling. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]. Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg19 chrX:117,480,036-117,583,923 Size: 103,888 Total Exon Count: 20 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg19 chrX:117,480,467-117,582,950 Size: 102,484 Coding Exon Count: 20
ID:WDR44_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=WD repeat-containing protein 44; AltName: Full=Rabphilin-11; FUNCTION: Downstream effector for RAB11. May be involved in vesicle recycling (By similarity). SUBUNIT: Interacts with the GTP-bound form of RAB11 when membrane- associated. Does not bind to other Rab and Rho small G proteins (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytosol. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Endosome membrane. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network. Note=Colocalized with RAB11 along microtubules oriented toward lamellipodia (By similarity). PTM: Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR. SIMILARITY: Contains 7 WD repeats. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAA92015.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=792; Sequence=BAC03799.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
