GUIDED ENTRY OF TAIL-ANCHORED PROTEINS FACTOR 1; GET1


Alternative titles; symbols

TRYPTOPHAN-RICH BASIC PROTEIN; WRB
CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE 5 GENE, FORMERLY; CHD5, FORMERLY


HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: GET1

Cytogenetic location: 21q22.2   Genomic coordinates (GRCh38) : 21:39,380,326-39,428,528 (from NCBI)


TEXT

Cloning and Expression

Egeo et al. (1998) used direct cDNA selection to identify over 300 fetal heart and cultured cardiac fibroblast cDNAs from chromosome 21q22.2-q22.3 to screen for genes that may contribute to congenital heart defects in Down syndrome (190685) patients. One clone, designated WRB, encoded a predicted 174-amino acid protein with a pI of 10.5. The WRB protein has a tryptophan-rich C-terminal region and a potential nuclear localization signal. By immunofluorescence, Egeo et al. (1998) localized WRB to the cell nucleus. Northern blot analysis of human adult and fetal tissues showed wide expression of WRB as 1.4- and 1.6-kb mRNAs.


Mapping

By analysis of genomic clones and somatic cell hybrids, Egeo et al. (1998) mapped the WRB gene to chromosome 21q22.3, near HMG14 (HMGN1; 163920).
