  ID: WIPI2_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=WD repeat domain phosphoinositide-interacting protein 2; Short=WIPI-2; AltName: Full=WIPI49-like protein 2;
FUNCTION: Probable early component of the autophagy machinery being involved in formation of preautophagosomal structures and their maturation into mature phagosomes in response to PtdIns3P. May bind PtdIns3P.
SUBUNIT: Interacts with TECPR1.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Preautophagosomal structure membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Note=Enriched at preautophagosomal structure membranes in response to ptdIns3P.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed (at protein level). Highly expressed in heart, skeletal muscle and pancreas. Expression is down-regulated in pancreatic and in kidney tumors.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the WD repeat SVP1 family.
SIMILARITY: Contains 3 WD repeats.

-  Primer design for this transcript
 

Primer3Plus can design qPCR Primers that straddle exon-exon-junctions, which amplify only cDNA, not genomic DNA.
Click here to load the transcript sequence and exon structure into Primer3Plus

Exonprimer can design one pair of Sanger sequencing primers around every exon, located in non-genic sequence.

ModBase Predicted Comparative 3D Structure on Q9Y4P8
FrontTopSide
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.
