Description: Homo sapiens WASHC4 (WASHC4), mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_015275): This gene encodes a component of the WASH complex, which functions in the intracellular transport of endosomes. Mutations in this gene have been detected in individuals with autosomal recessive cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2014]. Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg19 chr12:105,501,492-105,562,906 Size: 61,415 Total Exon Count: 33 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg19 chr12:105,501,579-105,560,709 Size: 59,131 Coding Exon Count: 33
ID:WASH7_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=WASH complex subunit 7; FUNCTION: Component of the WASH complex, a complex present at the surface of endosomes that recruits and activates the Arp2/3 complex to induce actin polymerization. The WASH complex plays a key role in the fission of tubules that serve as transport intermediates during endosome sorting (By similarity). SUBUNIT: Component of the WASH complex, composed of F-actin- capping protein subunit alpha (CAPZA1, CAPZA2 or CAPZA3), F-actin- capping protein subunit beta (CAPZB), WASH (WASH1, WASH2P, WASH3P, WASH4P, WASH5P or WASH6P), FAM21 (FAM21A, FAM21B or FAM21C), KIAA1033, KIAA0196 and CCDC53. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the WASHS7 family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAI10851.1; Type=Miscellaneous discrepancy; Note=Contaminating sequence. Potential poly-A sequence; Sequence=BAA82985.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally shortened;
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.
